  • The idea of commencing metro connectivity in Jaipur came into being, keeping in mind the rapid development of commercial and industrial zones in the city.
  • Jaipur’s population has grown exponentially in the past decade, due to its booming employment market.
  • To boost public transport infrastructure, the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) was brought on board as a consultant, to help the JMRC plan the Jaipur metro network.
