Patna. RIT has submitted the revised DPR of Patna Metro to the City Development Department. The cost of the metro has been reduced by about 1700 crores. The cost reduction came from an underground station low. The first three stations were proposed between the income tax from the Lalit Bhawan and now there will be two. The cost reduced from 19,586 crores to 17,888 crores. Length has not changed. There will be two corridors in Patna Metro. Alignment between income tax has been changed from Lalit Bhawan due to proposed underpass in Lohia Path Chakra on Bailey Road.
