While the NGOs in Pune wanted the metro corridor to be fully underground, the Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has begged to differ. He has said the project should be "feasible and economically sustainable", as per a PTI news report.Clearing all doubts, Fadnavis has said that Pune Metro will be a "mixed one" with both underground and elevated corridors.
"The Metro will have mixed - underground and elevated - corridors and the Centre's nod is expected soon for it," he said at a function organised by the association of Marathi builders and developers here last night.
As per the recommendations of the project report prepared for Pune Metro by Delhi Metro Rail Corporation, the city should have the first phase corridor (Swargate to Nigdi) underground on the route going through congested areas while the second (Vanaz to Ramwadi) could be an elevated one.
