Metro network length against ridership
mediumTrack built versus passengers carried, indexed to 2014.
The two lines track almost exactly — meaning passengers per kilometre have been flat. New metro lines are not, on average, better used than the ones they followed.
National highway network length
highIndexed to first year = 100 — derived from "National highway network length".
Network length grows partly by building new roads and partly by re-designating existing state highways as national highways. The two are not distinguished in the headline figure, so this series overstates new construction.
National highways constructed per year
highIndexed to first year = 100 — derived from "National highways constructed per year".
The honest read: construction peaked at 13,327 km in FY2020-21 and has since plateaued around 10,000-12,000 km a year. The 'record pace' framing does not survive contact with this series.
Operational airports
mediumIndexed to first year = 100 — derived from "Operational airports".
Counts drift between releases (157, 159, 160, 163) because 'operational' sometimes includes heliports, water aerodromes and seasonally-served strips. Treat the trend as solid and any single year as ±5.
Access to electricity
highIndexed to first year = 100 — derived from "Access to electricity".
From roughly 60% to near-universal. On any honest reckoning this is the single largest infrastructure achievement of the period.
