Modi Inaugurates Three Metro Sections in Kolkata

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has inaugurated three new sections of the Kolkata Metro, marking a significant milestone in the city's urban transportation network. These newly unveiled metro sections are poised to improve connectivity, reduce congestion, and enhance the overall commuting experience for residents of Kolkata.

The inauguration of these metro sections underscores the government's commitment to modernising public transportation infrastructure and promoting sustainable urban development. With expanded metro coverage, Kolkata residents can enjoy faster, safer, and more convenient travel options across the city.

The newly inaugurated metro sections are expected to alleviate traffic congestion on key arterial roads and provide a reliable alternative for commuters. By offering seamless connectivity to various parts of Kolkata, the metro network is set to stimulate economic activity, boost productivity, and enhance the overall quality of life for residents.

Furthermore, the expansion of the Kolkata Metro aligns with the government's vision of promoting mass transit systems as a means to reduce pollution, mitigate climate change, and improve air quality. With its emphasis on clean and efficient public transportation, the Kolkata Metro sets a precedent for sustainable urban mobility in India.

The inauguration of these three metro sections also represents a testament to the collaborative efforts between the central and state governments, as well as various stakeholders involved in the project. By working together, they have successfully delivered a world-class metro network that will benefit Kolkata residents for generations to come.
