 In the last nine years, under the leadership of the Honourable Prime Minister, remarkable growth and fast-paced development has propelled India to become the fastest-growing economy in the world.

And about 991 km long metro lines are under construction. In the cities of the country, to make public transport better, more than two dozen new cities are being destroyed by the metro network. With the inauguration of the extension line of Bengaluru's number metro from Whitefield to Krishna Rajapura, India's metro network will become the fourth largest in the world, surpassing Japan.
