Metro Rail

The Bhopal Metro Rail project was formally inaugurated on Saturday, with Chief Minister Mohan Yadav and Union Minister Manohar Lal Khattar flagging off services on a 6.22-km stretch of the Orange Line. This priority corridor runs across eight elevated stations from Subhash Nagar to AIIMS Bhopal, with commercial operations beginning on December 21. Designed to ease congestion on the state capital's busiest roads, it offers a cleaner mass-transit alternative in a city reliant on road transport.
