SAIL had primarily supplied long products consisting of earthquake resistant TMT bars for this project. SAIL’s branded earthquake resistant EQR TMT Bars have superior qualities and come in various customized specifications.

This is the first time that the C-130J transport aircraft joined the Indian Air Force’s special drill to land planes on the expressway. The IAF had earlier landed its Mirage 2000 and Sukhoi-30MKI fighter jets on the Yamuna Expressway and the Lucknow-Agra Expressway.
