The much-delayed Metro extension project connecting Palam Vihar and Dwarka Sector 21 may finally get a boost as the detailed project report has been finalised and will be discussed in a meeting chaired by chief minister Manohar Lal Khattar at the PWD guest house in Gurugram on Wednesday evening.
A letter issued by the Haryana Mass Rapid Transport Corporation Ltd said that the final report has been prepared by Rail India Technical and Economic Service Limited, more popularly known as RITES, and it envisages the estimated cost of the project at ₹2,281 crore. The Metro extension project is likely to become operational in 2027 if it gets an approval from the Haryana government.
The letter issued on May 12, a copy of which is with HT, also said RITES officials will make a presentation of the project before the chief minister on Wednesday.
