Bhopal Metro Project: Metro was to be started by 2022 on both 27 km route; 2100 crores spent, only 26% work was done

Now to complete the new deadline of 2027, you will have to increase 6 times the existing speed of work

If the work goes on at the current speed, then the metro will take 24 years

Assembly elections in the year 2018 The Bhopal and Indore projects were approved by the Center in October 2018 just before October 2018. It was then said that it was to be completed in four years i.e. in 2022. Talking about Bhopal Metro, in these four years, the Metro should have started operating on both AIIMS to AIIMS and Bhadbhada to Ratnigiri. But by June 2024, the situation is that only 25.93% work has been done after spending 2100 crores. Civil work is 14.12% and the work of systems is 11.81%. That is, only one quarter in 6 years. Now the new deadline is 2027.

i.e. three quarters will have to be done in three years. For this, the speed of work will have to be 6 times so that a quarter of the work can be completed every year. And if the speed of work is the same, it will take 24 years to complete. This has been revealed in the review done by Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav for the progress of the metro project. /P>
