Metro to reach over 25 cities by 2025: Modi
New Delhi: By 2025, metro train services will be expanded to over 25 cities across the country, said Prime Minister Narendra Modi while adding that “Make In India” is essential for the expansion. “First metro in Delhi was started with the efforts of Atal Ji. When our government was formed in 2014, only five cities had metro services and today 18 cities have metro rail service. By 2025, we will take this service to more than 25 cities,” said Mr Modi.
“Make In India is very important for the expansion of metro services. It reduces cost, saves foreign currency and provides more employment to people,” he added.
