Delhi Metro Phase 3 – November 2015 Update
Thanks to my Twitter follower Shashwat Pant for giving me a heads-up that the DMRC has FINALLY updated their website with the progress made up till the end of October by different contractors on the Phase 3 project. The DMRC usually posts updates towards the end of the month, but this time around the update got delayed.
@TheMetroRailGuy delhi metro updated their monthly page. Do check it out.

[from a BBC.com article on 8 Dec)
By the way, we also know what Delhi needs to do to make its air clean.
The city needs to scale up its public transport and clean up the congestion around Metro stations and improve last mile connectivity from the stations to neighbourhoods. Imposing a congestion tax and making parking more expensive should help dampen the city’s car addiction. Slashing of diesel subsidies or higher taxes on diesel vehicles could help. The government should take emergency action to reduce emissions on high-pollution days.
please don’t quote briturd bullshit corp again here, it’s a pathetic hackjob of a news website. So much anti Indian propaganda from butthurt briturds
