Indore relocates two schools to accelerate metro construction progress

Two government schools in Indore have been temporarily relocated to make way for metro construction. The move affects Govt Hindi Middle School No 24 and Marathi Middle School No 06. The Indore Metro Project covers a 32-kilometre route. The relocation of the schools clears space for metro infrastructure, supporting the city’s expanding transport network. With parts of the elevated corridor already finished and underground work underway, the project continues to move forward. Commercial services on the priority corridor are now active, marking a step toward full operation.
