Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari calls for stronger BRICS cooperation to build “future-ready” transport systems. Speaking on the need for closer coordination among BRICS countries, Gadkari emphasizes areas such as infrastructure development, transport innovation, road safety and sustainable mobility. Multiple reports say he links the cooperation agenda to efforts underway in India to modernize transport and promote greener alternatives. The coverage also notes that India highlights its transport reforms and green mobility initiatives as part of the broader international discussion. While the specific details of proposals are not consistently outlined across outlets, the common thrust is that BRICS collaboration could help countries adopt shared approaches for resilient transport networks and lower-emission mobility. Gadkari’s remarks frame transport as a cross-border challenge requiring coordination on safety standards, technology and sustainability, alongside investment in infrastructure. The reports present the call as a policy and cooperation message aimed at shaping long-term transport planning among BRICS members.
