|June 26, 2025
The Union Cabinet on Wednesday approved three key development projects, including extension of the Pune Metro, a revised rehabilitation plan for displaced families of Jharkhand's Jharia coalfields and the establishment of the International Potato Centre's regional centre in Agra district of Uttar Pradesh.
Among the projects approved was a ₹3,626 crore extension of Pune Metro Line 2, which aims to enhance urban mobility in one of Maharashtra's fastest-growing cities, Minister for Information & Broadcasting Ashwini Vaishnaw said.
The 12.77-km elevated stretch will link Vanaz to Ramwadi areas of Pune and is expected to boost last-mile connectivity, reduce congestion and support the city's green-mobility goals, the Minister said.
