This remarkable achievement follows the announcement of new metro projects and the Namo Bharat initiative for Delhi under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The journey of India's metro network, which began in 2002 with the launch of the modern metro by former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee in Delhi, has now reached this nationwide milestone. The transformation and expansion have been unprecedented under PM Modi's leadership, particularly since 2014. In the past decade, the metro network has seen a threefold increase, with an additional 1,000 kilometers added to its length.
The number of states with metro services has grown from five to eleven, while the number of cities benefiting from metro connectivity has surged from five to 23.
