Metro network in India reaches 750 km from 250 km in 2014: PM Modi

From less than 250 km in 2014, India’s metro rail network has grown to 750 km today, according to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who was virtually speaking at a mayors’ convention in Gujarat.

The Kochi metro’s first phase was recently opened by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. A government official claimed that the country is experiencing a “metro revolution” since the number of cities with transportation networks has increased from 5 in 2014 to 20 now.

The country’s metro network has increased from 248 kilometres in 2014 to 775 km and is currently on track to expand even further. It should be mentioned that the metro’s 1,000 km of development is now in progress.

“In 2014, the total Metro network in the country was 248 km. Today, the total Metro network in the country is 775 km. Another 1,000 km of the metro network is under construction. This is a part of the Metro revolution happening in the country under the Modi government,” an official said.
