Sustained indigenisation efforts have led to Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) achieving the milestone of manufacturing 90 per cent of Delhi Metro coaches in the country and it is now looking to export rakes to Queensland and Sydney Metros in Australia.
“Sustained indigenisation initiatives taken by DMRC have resulted in 90 per cent of Metro trains being manufactured in India,” according to a DMRC statement here on Friday.
The initiatives have also helped boost establishment of ancillary units and helped generate employment.
“Delhi Metro’s initiatives to indigenise manufacturing is in consonance with the ‘Make in India’ initiative of the central government and the establishment of three Metro coach manufacturing units in India to cater to the requirements of Metro market is a very positive development,” DMRC MD Mangu Singh said at a seminar here.— PTI
