Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to inaugurate a 17-kilometer extension of the Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut Rapid Rail Transit System (RRTS) corridor on Wednesday. This extension marks a significant milestone in enhancing regional connectivity and reducing travel time between Delhi and Meerut.
The extension from Duhai to Modi Nagar North will introduce the Namo Bharat train service, aiming to enhance regional connectivity. With this addition, the RRTS corridor will cover 34 kilometres.
Prime Minister Modi will remotely flag off the inaugural Namo Bharat train from the Muradnagar RRTS station via video conference from Kolkata. Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri is also expected to be present for the event.
