On March 7th, the Union Cabinet approved three of the six lines for Phase-4 of the Delhi Metro. Following Cabinet approval, all three corridors will be added to the Delhi metro map. Delhi will be connected to the farthest reaches of the National Capital Region in this phase.

December 2018 was the deadline for Cabinet approval of all six routes for the 104-kilometer project. If the government approves, Phase-4 will be 61.67 kilometers long, with 46 Metro stations, including 17 elevated stations. The project will cost over Rs 25,000 crore, with a portion of the funds contributed by the Delhi government.

The last-mile connectivity component of Phase 4 is intended to provide access to major infrastructure clusters across the NCR. Those lines would have 17 underground stops and 29 elevated stops, based on government estimates. Once completed, they are expected to serve roughly 15 lakh passengers daily.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched the interoperable NCMC last year under the name One Nation One Card. By the end of the year, these two facilities could be added to the Airport Express Line.

1. Through the locally-developed NCMC, people can pay for multiple kinds of transportation across the country, including metro and bus services.
2. Additionally, cardholders will be able to pay their toll taxes, parking charges, retail shopping, and even withdraw money.
3. Singh told news agency PTI that the AFC system will fully accept national common mobility cards in Phase 4 of the Delhi Metro.
4. In Phase 4 metro lines, riders will be able to enter and exit the AFC gates using a mobile phone, which will act as a smartcard.
5. There has been clarification from DMRC that old smart cards can be used on the new lines as well.

Three out of the six corridors of Delhi Metro's proposed Phase 4 were approved by the Union Cabinet in March last year, in a meeting chaired by PM Modi. Within the approved segment, new metro lines covering 61.679 kilometers and 45 stations are proposed for construction. Metro Delhi's already operational lines will be interconnected through these new sections.

Mukundpur-Maujpur, R K Ashram-Janakpuri West, and Aerocity-Tughlakabad are among the corridors approved by the Union cabinet. Phase 4 also includes Rithala-Bawana-Narela, Inderlok-Indraprastha, and Lajpat Nagar-Saket G Block, which are not yet approved. A groundbreaking ceremony was held for Delhi Metro's Phase 4 project at Haider Badli Mor on December 30 last year. Work has begun on the construction of 10 stations along a 28.92-km corridor connecting Janakpuri West and R K Ashram Marg, which is an extension of the Magenta Line.

The Phase 4 project will include many highs and several DMRC firsts. The first metro bridge over the Yamuna to be constructed using the cantilever-construction method, as well as the highest point in the DMRC system, will both be constructed as part of this project.
