The meeting was chaired by UT adviser Dharam Pal, indicating the significance of the discussions. During the course of the meeting, the esteemed team from RITES presented a comprehensive overview of the policies, guidelines, and procedures pertaining to the planning of the Mass Rapid Transit System (MRTS). It is worth noting that these plans align with the Metro Rail Policy issued by the Union Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA).

Providing further details, it has been disclosed that approximately two weeks after obtaining the green signal from the Union ministry of housing and urban affairs, the UT administration has taken a decision of great importance. In their proactive approach, they have decided to involve all key stakeholders, which notably includes Punjab and Haryana, in the meticulous preparation of both the Alternative Analysis Report (AAR) and the Detailed Project Report (DPR) for the Metro Rail project. This crucial step is in complete accordance with the government guidelines established by the Government of India.
