PM Modi to inaugurate Kolkata Metro corridors today: What it means for real estate markets
Kolkata’s property market is set to get a boost as the city’s metro network expands, with PM Narendra Modi scheduled to inaugurate new stretches of the Green, Orange, and Yellow lines today. Coming just ahead of Durga Puja, the expanded network is expected to increase real estate demand and values along the IT corridor, improve airport connectivity, and make travel more convenient.
The three new stretches are Sealdah to Esplanade (2.45 km), Noapara to Jaihind Bimanbandar (6.77 km) and Hemanta Mukhopadhyay to Beleghata stations (4.39 km) across three different corridors of Kolkata Metro.
