On June 30, 2016, RITES developed the DPR (Detailed Project Report) for the Agra Metro Phase 1 project and submitted it to the UP state government for approval. The Uttar Pradesh Metro Rail Corporation (UPMRCL) was designated as the project’s “coordinator” in 2017 in order to organize all parties involved and get things moving.
