Union Budget 2026: DRIL MD Aditya Chamaria Shares Insights on Infrastructure and Ropeway Development

Damodar Ropeways & Infra Limited (DRIL) has welcomed the Union Budget 2026, citing it as a decisive step towards strengthening India’s infrastructure ecosystem and accelerating sustainable mobility solutions, including in the Ropeway sector.

In a recent interaction with Forbes, The Hindu Business Line, Mr. Aditya Chamaria, Managing Director, Damodar Ropeways & Infra Limited, shared his insights on how the Union Budget 2026 reinforces the government’s focus on capital expenditure, regional connectivity, and tourism-driven infrastructure growth.

Union Budget 2026 and Infrastructure Growth in India

The Union Budget 2026 continues the government’s emphasis on infrastructure-led economic growth, with sustained allocation towards capital expenditure and development of transport infrastructure across Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities. According to Mr. Chamaria, these measures create a strong policy and investment environment for Ropeway projects in India.

“The Union Budget 2026 clearly reflects the government’s long-term vision for infrastructure development. The focus on capital investment, regional connectivity, and tourism infrastructure will significantly support the growth of Ropeway systems across the country,” said Mr. Chamaria.

Role of Ropeways in Sustainable Mobility and Tourism Infrastructure

Ropeways are increasingly emerging as safe, efficient, and environmentally sustainable transport solutions, especially in hilly terrains, urban congestion zones, pilgrimage destinations, and tourist hubs. With lower land acquisition requirements and minimal environmental impact, Ropeway infrastructure aligns closely with India’s sustainability and smart mobility goals.

The budget’s continued focus on last-mile connectivity, tourism infrastructure, and sustainable transport alternatives positions Ropeways as a critical component of India’s future mobility framework.

DRIL’s Contribution to India’s Ropeway Infrastructure Vision

Damodar Ropeways & Infra Limited remains actively engaged in the development of modern Ropeway projects across India, offering end-to-end capabilities including design, engineering, construction, and operations. The company’s approach aligns with national priorities such as sustainable development, improved accessibility, and regional economic growth.
