GHAZIABAD: Prime Minister Narendra Modi is likely to inaugurate a 13km section of the Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS) connecting New Ashok Nagar in Delhi to Sahibabad in Ghaziabad on December 29, officials aware of the matter said on Thursday.

"The PM is likely to arrive for the inauguration of the Sahibabad to Delhi section of the RRTS project," said deputy commissioner of police (city) Rajesh Kumar, who is the officiating additional commissioner of police for Ghaziabad.

After the 13km stretch is thrown open, the transit system will finally connect the Capital with the NCR city of Meerut.

Currently, the 42km operational stretch of the RRTS lies entirely in Uttar Pradesh, officials from the National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC) - the agency executing the project - said.

The newly inaugurated section includes Delhi's first underground RRTS station at Anand Vihar, alongside an elevated station at New Ashok Nagar.

"The New Ashok Nagar to Sahibabad section is operational-ready, and the safety approval of the stretch is also complete," said an NCRTC official.
