Dynamite News Will metro reach Gautam Buddh Nagar West? BJP MP Dr Mahesh Sharma raised his voice in Lok Sabha
MP demands faster Metro for Greater Noida West (8-year delay) and Jewar Airport launch, citing public inconvenience. Projects stuck despite cleared funds.
New Delhi: Gautam Buddh Nagar MP Dr. Mahesh Sharma has sounded the alarm in Parliament over two critical infrastructure projects stuck in limbo—the Greater Noida West Metro extension and the much-awaited Jewar Airport. With over 8 lakh residents, including students and professionals, grappling with poor connectivity, the MP’s fiery speech in the Lok Sabha has reignited public anger over bureaucratic delays.
Metro Project: 8-Year Wait, Zero Progress
In a hard-hitting address, Dr. Sharma revealed that the Greater Noida West Metro project, promised during the area’s development, has been pending for eight years despite escalating public demand. "When Greater Noida West was established, authorities assured Metro connectivity. Yet, files are gathering dust while residents suffer," he said.
