Statement 1 is correct: The PM GatiShakti National Master Plan is designed to bring together the infrastructure schemes of various Ministries and State Governments for integrated planning and coordinated implementation. It aims to break down silos and foster cooperation across different government bodies

Statement 2 is correct: The plan explicitly incorporates major infrastructure initiatives such as Bharatmala (roads), Sagarmala (ports), inland waterways, dry/land ports, and UDAN (aviation), among others.
