DMRC Chairman and Union Urban Development (UDD) Ministry Secretary Madhusudan Prasad, flanked by UDD Additional Secretary D S Mishra and DMRC Managing Director Mangu Singh, presented the awards to the employees.

During the event, Singh listed the achievements of DMRC during last year and said the Corporation is taking additional efforts on the indigenisation of technologies involved in Metro operations in sync with the ‘Make in India’ campaign.

“On the operational front, additional statistics are now being taken not only for peak hour traffic but peak of peak hour traffic owing to the ever increasing ridership.

“Also, additional efforts are being made to stress on indigenisation of technologies involved in Metro operations in sync with the ‘Make in India’ campaign of the Government of India,” Singh said adding over 90 per cent of Rolling Stock procured by DMRC had been manufactured in India.

Singh said even as DMRC undertakes large scale development activities, the Corporation was committed to ensure the works do not add to pollution levels.

Prasad said Delhi Metro has “changed the course of public transport in India” and lauded DMRC saying it has maintained reliability and punctuality of services, which reported last year was 99.88 per cent.

Meanwhile, the corporation adjudged Mahesh Kumar (one of its station managers) as “Metro Person of the Year”, while “Metro Woman of the Year” award was given to Renu Dhillon. The Central Secretariat Metro station was named ‘Best Metro Station’.

New Delhi: Union Urban Development Minister Venkaiah Naidu today said the government would focus on expanding metro network across the country.

Naidu, who is a frequent traveller on the Airport Express Line, said he was trying to encourage his colleagues and others to use metro services and announced that Delhi Metro smart cards would be valid for travel in the New Delhi Station-IGI Airport section also.

“I am trying to persuade other ministers, MPs to avail the services of Metro regularly. The Prime Minister himself had travelled recently. We spend so much in running the facilities so optimum use is imperative,” Naidu said.

According to Metro officials, the Union Minister had travelled over 35 times in the mass transit network during his trips in and out of the national capital via flights.

“The idea is to have network of metro across the country. We need to have less private and more public transport and that is the need of the hour. We will be focusing on expanding metro throughout the country,” Naidu said.

The Minister, who would flag off the Phase I of Bangalore Metro tomorrow, said Chennai Metro would be made operational by the end of next month and that DMRC has prepared a DPR for the proposed metro for the new capital city of Andhra Pradesh.

“We are moving towards modernisation of India. PM wants transformation of India that’s why NITI Aayog was brought in replacing the Planning Commission. We must have a strong economy, smart solutions, smart leadership,” he said.

Meanwhile, tomorrow onwards, Delhi Metro smart cards would be valid for travel by the Airport Express Line, making a seamless travel between the two networks possible.

“There is no need for DMRC Smart Card holders to purchase any additional token or card separately for travel on the Airport Express Line however the existing smart cards issued from the stations on the Airport Express Line will continue to be valid only for travel on the Airport Express Line,” an official said.

Earlier today, the Lucknow Metro Rail Corporation (LMRC) organised a conclave at the India Habitat Centre (IHC) to showcase the emerging opportunities that exist in Uttar Pradesh in the Mass Rapid Transit (MRTS) sector.

LMRC Managing Director Kumar Keshav, who spoke on the occasion, said DPRs of Metro projects for Kanpur, Varanasi, Agra and Meerut would be submitted to the government in about four months.

“Once it is approved by the cabinet, the work for Metro rail projects will start very soon in these cities, thus, providing plethora of opportunities for all our stakeholders in this sector,” Keshav added

New Delhi: If you believe premises of the Delhi Metro stations are one of the safest places in the city, it’s time to rethink. Nearly one-third of the Metro stations have been found ‘unsafe’, particularly for women, by the Delhi Police. In a survey conducted to assess the status of lighting arrangements in Metro parking lots and on roads leading to the stations, the Delhi Police has found that 44 of the 125 Metro stations in the national Capital have inadequate lighting.

Delhi Police officials said that nearly 500 cases of snatching and over 2,000 cases of stalking were reported from outside these stations, in 2014. The survey report states that parking lots at almost all Metro stations in and around Connaught Place are poorly-lit though the roads leading to them have adequate lighting. These include the crowded Rajiv Chowk, Barakhamba Road, Mandi House, R.K. Ashram Marg, Jhandewalan and Karol Bagh Metro stations.  Similarly, the parking lot at Patel Chowk Metro station, which is located close to the Parliament House and the Parliament Street police station, has been found unsafe for women commuters. The parking lot at the station has inadequate lighting, which makes it prone to petty crimes. A police official said the survey was conducted following frequent complaints of snatching and stalking from outside several Metro stations.

The survey, conducted in every police district, has revealed that none of the Metro stations in East District—including Laxmi Nagar, Yamuna Bank, Preet Vihar and Nirman Vihar—has properly-lit parking lots or approach roads. Surprisingly, the Metro stations at Akshardham and Anand Vihar too lack proper lighting arrangements. Notably, these two stations receive high footfall as tourists and rail passengers use this station in large numbers.
