Jaipur Metro Phase-2 DPR Approved as Rs 122.60 Bn Project Awaits Centre

Rajasthan Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma has given the green light to the detailed project report (DPR) for Jaipur Metro Phase-2, marking a major step towards one of the largest urban transport expansions in the state.

The 42.80-kilometre-long corridor, stretching from Todi Mode to Prahladpura, will be implemented by the Rajasthan Metro Rail Corporation (RMRC), a joint venture between the state and Central governments. Construction is set to begin once the project receives approval from the Union Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs.

With an estimated cost of Rs 122.60 billion, the project will include 36 metro stations—two of which will be underground. Funding will be sourced in part through loans from financial institutions. The proposed extension is aimed at enhancing urban connectivity by linking key residential, commercial, educational, and industrial areas across Jaipur, including Mansarovar, Durgapura, and the Sitapura Industrial Area.

Originally announced in the Rajasthan Budget for 2025–26, the initiative is expected to significantly ease traffic congestion, reduce environmental pollution, and improve access to major zones in the city. RMRC will oversee the current operations and future expansion of the Jaipur Metro network.
