PM Modi unveils ₹12,200 crore infrastructure boost for Delhi ahead of elections
.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated and laid the foundation stone for a series of development projects worth over Rs 12,200 crore in Delhi, just days before the announcement of the Delhi Assembly elections.

One of the key projects unveiled was the Delhi section of the Delhi-Meerut Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS).

The Prime Minister inaugurated a 13 km stretch of the Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut Namo Bharat corridor, extending from Sahibabad to New Ashok Nagar. With an investment of ₹4,600 crore, this project will significantly cut down travel time between Delhi and Meerut, making the journey possible in under an hour.

The new stretch is now operational, and PM Modi also took a ride on the Namo Bharat train from Sahibabad to New Ashok Nagar RRTS station.

Additionally, PM Modi inaugurated a 2.8 km stretch of the Delhi Metro Phase-IV, connecting Janakpuri to Krishna Park. Valued at around ₹1,200 crore, this is the first section of the Phase-IV Metro network to be launched.

This new stretch will benefit key areas in West Delhi, including Krishna Park, Vikaspuri, and Janakpuri. The Prime Minister also laid the foundation for the 26.5 km Rithala-Kundli section of Delhi Metro Phase-IV, estimated at ₹6,230 crore. This new corridor will link Rithala in Delhi to Nathupur (Kundli) in Haryana, improving connectivity for regions like Rohini, Bawana, Narela, and Kundli. The extended Red Line will ensure smooth travel across Delhi, Haryana, and Uttar Pradesh.

Besides transportation infrastructure, PM Modi laid the foundation for a new state-of-the-art building for the Central Ayurveda Research Institute (CARI) in Rohini, with an investment of approximately Rs 185 crore. The facility will include an administrative block, OPD and IPD blocks, and a dedicated treatment block, creating a holistic environment for healthcare and research.

In his address, the Prime Minister remarked that Delhi-NCR had received a major boost in urban mobility, with the Namo Bharat train bringing a transformative change to the traffic dynamics along the Delhi-Meerut route.

Reflecting on his interaction with young passengers during his train ride, Modi shared their enthusiasm and optimism about the future. He also mentioned that India’s metro network now spans over 1,000 kilometers.
