Haryana’s Chief Minister Mr. Nayab Singh Saini and Union Urban Development Minister, Mr. Manohar Lal Khattar laid the foundation stone of Gurugram metro’s first phase.

“The metro rail project will reduce congestion and pollution in the city. This is a historic day, and this project will transform the transport infrastructure of Gurugram and boost connectivity across NCR,” said Mr. Saini while speaking at Gurugram University auditorium.

A much-awaited infrastructural development in Gurugram, the first phase of the metro, includes the construction of 15.22 km of metro rail viaduct. The first phase, spanning 28.5 km in length, will connect Millennium City Centre to Sector 101 of Gurugram, passing through 13 other stations.

Speaking at the occasion, Union Urban Development Minister, Mr. Manohar Lal Khattar mentioned that the project will cost around Rs. 5,600 crore and will ensure rapid development of Gurugram, Manesar and Faridabad.

Sharing his thoughts Mr. Pradeep Aggarwal, Founder & Chairman, Signature Global (India) Ltd., said “The foundation of the Gurugram Metro Expansion Project marks a landmark moment in the city’s growth journey. Metro connectivity is the backbone of any modern urban ecosystem, and this expansion—spanning 15 km with 15 new stations—will ease mobility, decongest traffic, and unlock new opportunities for both businesses and citizens.”

“Along with transformative infrastructure such as the Dwarka Expressway, Southern Peripheral Road, and Sohna Elevated Corridor, this development is set to redefine Gurugram as a seamlessly connected urban hub. Collectively, these projects are not only enhancing the real estate potential of SPR and Dwarka Expressway but also laying the foundation for balanced, sustainable, and inclusive urban growth,” he added.
