South Delhi MP Ramvir Singh Bidhuri said the completed stretch had undergone technical evaluations, including load testing by the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI).

During trial runs, the journey from Sarai Kale Khan to Sohna and Palwal took around 40-45 minutes, compared with nearly three hours during peak traffic, he said. Prime Minister Narendra Modi may inaugurate the corridor later this year, sources indicated to TOI.
