Driverless train operations on Delhi Metro’s 57-kilometre Pink Line will begin from Thursday. Union urban affairs minister Hardeep Singh Puri and Delhi transport minister Kailash Gahlot will flag the driverless train at 11.30 am via video conferencing.
“Driverless Train Operations on Delhi Metro’s Pink Line (Majlis Park to Shiv Vihar) will be inaugurated on 25th Nov 2021 (Thursday) at 11:30 am via video conferencing,” the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) said in a tweet on Wednesday.
This is the second such train facility to be inaugurated by the Delhi Metro. Last year, Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched the country’s first-ever driverless train on the Magenta Line and launched National Common Mobility Card on the Airport Express Line.
