Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik on Monday laid the foundation stone for the Rs 6,225 crore Bhubaneswar Metro Rail project.
Before laying the foundation stone at Ratagada Lenka Sahi near Trisulia, Patnaik held a roadshow on the 26 km route of the proposed metro project. People stood on both sides of the road and different groups performed traditional folk dance and music to welcome the chief minister during the roadshow.
“Apan Mane Khusi Ta (Are you happy)”, Patnaik asked the people gathered on the occasion.
“Today (Jan 1, 2024) will remain in the history of Odisha’s development. As promised earlier, we are laying the foundation stone of the metro rail project”, he said.
