On 28 April 2010, the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MORTH) officially published a new numbering system for the National Highways in the Gazette of the Government of India. The new numbering system is a systematic numbering scheme based on the orientation and the geographic location of the highway. This was adopted to ensure more flexibility and consistency in the numbering of existing and new national highways.
