Prime Minister Narendra Modi has taken a significant step in improving urban transit by inaugurating two new corridors of the Delhi Metro. These corridors, Majlis Park-Maujpur Babarpur and Deepali Chowk-Majlis Park, are part of a larger initiative that promises to enhance connectivity across Delhi.

The expansion project also includes the foundation laying for three new metro lines under Phase V-A. These lines aim to connect R K Ashram Marg to Indraprastha, Aerocity to Indira Gandhi Airport Terminal-1, and Tughlakabad to Kalindi Kunj, facilitating smoother commutes in the bustling capital.

This metro expansion is part of a broader Rs 33,500 crore investment under the General Pool Residential Accommodation redevelopment plan, projected to boost infrastructure and urban connectivity significantly.
