Good news for Delhites. To provide the Commuters faster internet connectivity, the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) has signed an agreement with Beckhaul Digital Technologies Pvt. Ltd. to install and maintain a high-speed Optical Fiber Network in all metro corridors today. This project will enhance internet communications across Delhi-NCR metro network.
As part of this initiative, Beckhaul Digital Technologies Pvt. Ltd. will lay 700 km of fiber optic cables along all metro lines, including the Airport Line. The rollout will happen in phases, with Pink and Magenta Lines being the first to go live, and the rest expected to be ready in the next six months.
The fiber network will act as a backbone for high-speed internet, supporting telecom companies, internet service providers, data centers, and smart city projects. It will also help in the smooth rollout of 5G services across Delhi-NCR.
This initiative supports the Government of India’s vision for a digitally connected nation. It will help telecom companies deliver faster, more reliable internet while allowing DMRC to make better use of its existing infrastructure. With increasing demand for high-speed internet and 5G expansion, this project will play a key role in making Delhi better connected and future-ready.
