Mumbai-Pune Expressway built 27 years ago by me remains pothole-free: Nitin Gadkari

Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari on Monday said the Mumbai-Pune Expressway, which was constructed 27 years ago during his tenure, remains pothole-free to this day.

"I built the Mumbai-Pune Expressway 27 years ago. It's still pothole-free, but nobody writes about it.
