Ahmedabad has a population of around 90 lakh and its Metro serves nearly 1.5 lakh passengers every day.
Hyderabad is home to more than 1 crore people and its Metro carries close to 5 lakh passengers daily.
Despite serving a larger population and handling more than three times the ridership, Hyderabad is still waiting for the Metro expansion that its growing needs demand.
That is what makes the latest Union Cabinet approval for Ahmedabad Metro worth โน2,169 crore difficult to ignore.
The question is why Hyderabad continues to wait despite having greater commuter demand and greater pressure on its transport infrastructure.
Every day thousands of new journeys are made across Hyderabad. Every day the city expands further. Every day more people depend on public transport to reach workplaces, educational institutions and essential services.
Chief Minister Revanth Reddy has consistently pursued Hyderabad Metro Phase 2 because the city's future depends on infrastructure keeping pace with growth.
When a city with 90 lakh people and 1.5 lakh daily Metro commuters receives swift approvals while a city with more than 1 crore people and nearly 5 lakh daily Metro commuters continues to wait, it is natural for people to ask whether Hyderabad is receiving the attention it deserves.

@zomato If you canโt deliver on time, cancel with a full refund. Stop spamming customers with โ5 more minutesโ while food arrives an hour late.
Promising 25โ30 mins and delivering in 90 isnโt delivery. Customers eat on their time, not yours.
@bandisanjay_bjp@TelanganaDGP@TelanganaCOPs@TelanganaCMO respond on this serious issue. Union Minister saying that his son was surrendered himself. Telangana people need clarification on this serious issue. Law should be equal to everyone.
So, the moment the court denied anticipatory bail, he suddenly surrendered after 8 days? Wow. Does that mean his whereabouts were known all along, yet Telangana Police were kept in the dark while publicly claiming they couldnโt trace him? If true, what does this say about law and order? Absolute mockery.
