With the extension of the stretch by 5 km, the total length of the Metro rail corridor operational in the country has become 383 km and another 523 km of Metro stretches are at various stages of construction and the government will achieve the targeted length in the next two years. He added that the Centre had revised its Metro rail policy recently and hopes that the states will also resubmit their proposals for the second phase in tune with the new Metro rail policy.
