New Delhi sources have stated that Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate a segment of the newly built Magenta Line of Delhi Metro today which will connect Botanical Garden in Noida to South Delhi's Kalkaji Mandir.
According to sources, Modi will also address public at the inauguration, which will happen at the Botanical Garden Metro Station. Locking horns with the Centre and the Delhi Metro since the fare hike, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's office denied receiving an invitation to the inauguration ceremony. "We have no official intimation of the program".
Moreover, this would be the first line on the Delhi Metro network where driverless trains will be introduced along with an advanced degree of automation, which will bring down the frequency of trains arriving at stations down to 90 seconds.
