PM Modi on Sunday inaugurated the extension of the Delhi Airport Metro Express line from Dwarka Sector 21 to a new metro station 'YashoBhoomi Dwarka Sector 25'.
Aam Admi Party (AAP) national spokesperson Priyanka Kakkar on Sunday hit out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi for not sending an invitation to Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal for the inauguration of the Delhi Airport Metro Express line.
Ahead of the inauguration, Kakkar took to X, and accused PM Modi of "low-level politics". PM Modi on Sunday inaugurated the extension of the Delhi Airport Metro Express line from Dwarka Sector 21 to a new metro station 'YashoBhoomi Dwarka Sector 25'.
"Today the Prime Minister will inaugurate the “Airport Express Line” in Delhi. Delhi Government bears 50 per cent of the expenses of Delhi Metro but Modi ji does small politics of “I, Me and Myself”, that is why he did not consider it necessary to send an invitation to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal".
Taking a dig at PM Modi, the AAP leader said, "Your low-level politics is not liked by people of Delhi". "Delhi belongs to its people, Prime Minister, that is why you could never win because your heart is small and low level politics is not liked by the people of Delhi," she added. After the inauguration, the Prime Minister took a ride on the Delhi Metro. Passenger operations on the new extension will begin from 3 pm today.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi will also officially unveil Phase 1 of the India International Convention and Expo Centre (IICC), known as Yashobhoomi in Dwarka. The nearly 2-kilometre-long 'Yashobhoomi line' of the Delhi Metro will connect Dwarka Sector 21 and India International Convention Centre.
Visuals showed PM Modi interacting with the passengers inside the Metro, who also took selfies and wished him a happy birthday. With the addition of this section, the total length of the Airport Express Line from New Delhi to Yashobhoomi Dwarka Sector-25 will become 24.9 km," the DMRC said in a statement.
