KOCHI (Metro Rail News): Shri Hardeep Singh Puri, Hon’ble Minister of Housing and Urban Affairs, inaugurated the exhibition booth of NCRTC in the presence of Shri Vinay Kumar Singh, Managing Director, NCRTC, and other officials of NCRTC at the 15th Urban Mobility India Conference & Expo being organised in Kochi, today, on 04th November 2022.

Shri Singh gave a tour of the exhibition booth to the Hon’ble Minister, who congratulated Team NCRTC for their efforts. He also appreciated the pace at which the construction is going on and lauded that despite the challenges posed by the pandemic, the project is likely to be complete before its targeted time.

NCRTC is showcasing India’s first Regional Rail at the UMI conference. The theme of this year’s exhibition is Azadi@75 Sustainable Atmanirbhar Urban Mobility and RRTS is a true manifestation of this theme. Being the first semi-high-speed regional rail, it has kept the exhibition abuzz and the RRTS models and the VR setup at the booth are a big draw for people to know more about the project.

Under the Make in India Initiative, the rolling stock of RRTS is not only designed in Hyderabad but also, 100 per cent of these modern trainsets are being manufactured indigenously in Savli, Gujarat. RRTS is also credited for many firsts being achieved for the railways and overall transport sector in the country, be it technology for implementation and operations, construction techniques or commuter-centric amenities.

The exhibition was inaugurated by the Hon’ble Union Minister of Housing and Urban Affairs and Petroleum and Natural Gas, Shri Hardeep Singh Puri. This exhibition is being organised by MoHUA in collaboration with the government of Kerala from 4th-6th November 2022. Managing Directors of Metro Rail Companies, Chief Executives of transport undertakings, Senior officers from Central and State Governments, policymakers, international industry experts, professionals, academicians, and students will participate in this three-day event.
