In addition to inaugurating the Indore Metro Rail project's first phase, Modi will also launch the Datia and Satna airports through video conferencing during the program.

The foundation stone for this first phase of the metro rail project, which has an estimated cost of Rs 75 billion, was laid on September 14, 2019. The entire metro network in the city is expected to span approximately 31.50 kilometers once completed.
