## ANSWER THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF HOUSING AND URBAN AFFAIRS

## (RAO INDERJIT SINGH)

- (a) The  details  of  metro  rail  network  operational  in  the  country  are given at Annexure-I. Urban Transport intertwined with urban development is a State subject. Therefore, the primary responsibility for development of urban transport infrastructure including metro rail network,  lies  with  the  State  Government.  The  Central  Government considers  such  urban  transport  projects  based  on  feasibility  and availability  of  resources  as  and  when  posed  by  the  concerned  State Government.
- (b) & (c) The  details  of  metro  rail  proposals  received/  sanctioned during the last three years and the current year along with the names of stretch and the estimated cost State/UT-wise are given in AnnexureII  &  IIA. Sanction  of  metro  rail  projects  is  an  ongoing  process  which requires  extensive  consultations  with  all  stakeholders.  No  time  limit can be specified for sanction of metro rail projects. Therefore, there is no pendency.
- (d) The  details  of  funds  sanctioned  /  released  by  the  Ministry  of Housing and Urban Affairs and utilized by metro rail companies during the last three years and current year are given in Annexure-III.
- (e) The details of progress of under construction metro rail stretches and  the  time  by  which  these  are  likely  to  be  completed  are  given  in Annexure-IV.
- (f) Rapid  Metrorail  Gurgaon  Limited  (RMGL),  Gurugram  which  is implementing  Rapid  metro  on  Public  Private  Partnership  (PPP)  mode has informed that the current ridership is substantially lower than the estimated ridership. The following measures have been taken by RMGL
- to enhance the ridership;
- (i) Creating awareness on benefits of public transport amongst potential commuters through print/digital media, radio,
- hoardings, activation programmes etc.
- (ii) Integration of various other modes of transport which could
- also act as feeder/evacuation systems.
- (iii) Provision of adequate parking at metro stations.
- (iv) Strategic partnership with shuttle/e-rickshaw service
- providers for providing first and last mile connectivity.
- (v) Developing Rapid Metro  as a preferred destination for various  experiential  programs and weekend destination for children and families.

Jaipur Metro Rail Corporation which is completely owned by the Government  of  Rajasthan  has  informed  that  the  average  ridership  of first  25  months  of  9.6  Kms  long  Jaipur  Metro  Phase-IA  is  comparable with other metro rail networks for same period of operations.
