Indore (Madhya Pradesh): Five sets of metro trains, each comprising three coaches, have reached the Gandhi Nagar depot so far. Of them, four metro sets are being tested on the track in the depot premises.
Meanwhile, the metro station work has also intensified.
The commercial run is likely to start in a few months on the 5.9-km priority corridor between Gandhinagar and Super Corridor and the denizens will be able to take a ride on the metro. In such a situation, the existing five metros will be operated on the priority corridor. Now the efforts to complete other parts of the corridor, including the metro station have also intensified.
