General people will not benefit with Gachibowli-Airport Metro, says CM

Stating that the 32-km Gachibowli-Airport Metro designed in the past was not beneficial to the common people, Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy said other routes including Gowliguda, Falaknuma and LB Nagar–Airport would ensure more passenger occupancy.

People residing in Gachibowli, Jubilee Hills and neighbouring areas were well-to-do families and prefer their own personal transportation to reach the airport. On the



contrary, introducing Metro on the Gowliguda, Falaknuma, Airport and LB Nagar – Airport routes would result in more utility by the common people, he said during a meeting with CII representatives here on Saturday.

“Generally, most people from these areas visit Arab countries and their family members see off them at the airport. Introducing Metro routes on the above routes will prove beneficial,” Revanth said.
