Explanation:

Second statement is incorrect. Bharatmala will give the country 50 national corridors as opposed to the 6 we have at present.

Bharatmala Project is the second largest highways construction project in the country since NHDP, under which almost 50,000 km or highway roads were targeted across the country. Bharatmala will look to improve connectivity particularly on economic corridors, border areas and far flung areas with an aim of quicker movement of cargo and boosting exports.
