What does this status mean?
Meaningful delivery has occurred, but the stated commitment is incomplete.
Status describes delivery. Confidence describes how strong the available evidence is.
Original manifesto wording
“We will introduce a new scheme for truck drivers under which modern facilities will be developed along the national highways.”

Our Assessment
Modern driver facilities along highways are being developed through NHAI’s Wayside Amenities programme (600+ locations every 40-60 km, including trucker dormitories, parking, workshops, clean toilets and food courts) and the dedicated driver-centric "Apna Ghar" rest stops (e.g. 21 built on the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway, managed by IOCL, with beds, kitchens and CCTV security for as little as Rs 112/night). The Humsafar Policy (2025) further standardises these amenities. The substance of a "new scheme for truck drivers" is being delivered; nationwide rollout is still scaling. Partial.
