With a view to reducing the problems of Delhi’s commuter, the launching of an Integrated Multi Mode Mass Rapid Transport System for Delhi had long been under consideration.

It is recommended a 198.5 km predominantly rail based network, with first phase to cover a length of 55.3 km, report was completed by RITES during 1995.
