82-km Delhi-Meerut Regional Rapid Transit System or Namo Bharat corridor is expected to be fully operational by June 2025. It will cut travel time between Delhi & Meerut to under an hour.
'Gross breach' of assurances given by AAP govt, says bench. At an earlier hearing, court had questioned govt for spending Rs 1,100 crore on ads but not on the infrastructure project.
Inauguration ceremony took place at Sahibabad station of Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut RRTS Corridor that's meant to reduce travel time between Delhi and Meerut to a little less than an hour.
Most of expenditure from Rs 1,464 cr 'environmental compensation charge' fund has gone towards Delhi-Meerut RRTS, yet to be used for activities under Delhi's Pollution Control Committee.
72 km-long metro corridor would have cost around Rs 25,000 cr. More projects to provide connectivity between neighbouring cities & under-construction Noida International airport underway.
Delhi says Rs 1,073 cr spent on ads in 3 yrs to 'maximise reach' of policies. SC asked about publicity spending after Kejriwal govt expressed inability to pay rapid transit system dues.
BJP's attack comes day after Supreme Court directed Delhi govt to submit details of how much it spends on advertisements when latter said it could not contribute due to lack of funds.
