The ropeway in India is a public transportation system where cabins, gondolas or open chairs are hauled above the ground with the help of cables. India's Parvatmala Scheme, the world's largest ropeway project, envisages spending ₹1,250 billion (US$16 billion) in public–private partnership (PPP) mode over five years till 2030 to build 200 new ropeway projects of more than 1200 km length, which will decongest the traffic in narrow roads of big cities and provide cheaper connectivity in mountainous and touristy areas. Since 30% of India is covered by mountains, the ropeways are specially useful in mountainous areas, where it is difficult to build roads or railway, as lower cost and higher Return on investment (ROI) projects. Rajgir Ropeway in Bihar, 333m-long chairlift ropeway built in 1960s, is India's first ropeway. As of 2024, the 4km-long Auli Ropeway in Uttarakhand is India's longest and world's the second-longest ropeway behind Vietnam's 7,899.9 m long Hòn Thơm cable car, and when completed the under-construction 5.5km-long Mussoorie-Dehradun Ropeway will be the longest in India. Kashi ropeway is India's first urban ropeway, and world's third urban public transport ropeway behind Bolivia's Mi Teleférico opened in 2014 and Mexico City's Mexicable opened in 2021. This article also contains a list of "glass bridges in India", which are mostly glass bridge skywalk.
