Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) has initiated the process of land acquisition for two crucial corridors under Phase 4 expansion of the metro network in Delhi. The corridors in question are the Aerocity to Tughlakabad and Rithala to Narela lines, integral to enhancing metro connectivity across the capital.

This move marks a significant step forward in DMRC's ambitious plans to expand and modernise Delhi's metro infrastructure. The acquisition process aims to secure necessary land parcels for constructing stations, depots, and associated infrastructure along these corridors.

The expansion is expected to cater to the growing transportation needs of Delhi's expanding population and improve accessibility across different parts of the city.

DMRC's proactive approach in land acquisition underscores its commitment to timely project execution and efficient deployment of resources. This development is poised to pave the way for smoother metro operations and enhanced public transport services, contributing to Delhi's overall infrastructure development goals.
