Reflecting on my tenure as the first Managing Director of NCRTC, I am overwhelmed by the sheer resilience of the institution we built. Today, I am incredibly proud that  the corridor will significantly improve daily travel by reducing the long and unpredictable road journey between Delhi and Meerut to a safe, comfortable and reliable 55-minute ride. The project is expected to boost regional connectivity and promote balanced urban development. Engineers, ground workers and partner agencies were credited for their dedication in delivering the world-class infrastructure, which is being seen as a major step towards transforming regional mobility in the country. By integrating the Meerut Metro on the same RRTS infrastructure, authorities saved around Rs 6,300 crore while enhancing public utility.
