4. MP and administrator face to face on running metro

MP Manish Tiwari and Administrator Gulab Chand Kataria have come face to face over running the metro in Chandigarh. Administrator Kataria says that running metro for Chandigarh’s population of about 12 lakh can be an economically unprofitable deal. The city will not get enough riders for such a huge investment.
The administrator further said – Metro is beneficial only when it is connected to nearby big cities, otherwise it will be difficult to earn interest from it. The entire city will be dug up for 5 years and what will be the benefit? Metro in Chandigarh can be built only underground. No permission will be given to build a bridge above. Underground metro will be so expensive that it is better to run electric buses and provide free travel to the people.
In response to this, Congress MP Manish Tewari said – The proposed Mass Rapid Transport System (MRTS) for Chandigarh, Mohali, Panchkula and New Chandigarh is not just a traffic project but will give a new direction to the economic future of the entire region. This will create employment opportunities for the people. Traffic remains a challenge in Chandigarh and surrounding areas in 2026. The situation may become more serious by 2036 (Read full news)
