Delhi-Meerut RRTS Overview
Delhi-Meerut RRTS, branded Namo Bharat, is India's first Regional Rapid Transit System, operated on behalf of the National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC) by DB RRTS Operations India, a Deutsche Bahn subsidiary. The 82.15 km corridor connects Sarai Kale Khan in Delhi to Modipuram in Meerut, opening in phases from October 2023 and reaching full operation on 22 February 2026. Namo Bharat trains reach speeds of up to 180 km/h, cutting the Delhi-Meerut journey to around 45 minutes. Trains run from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM daily.
The corridor connects Delhi, Ghaziabad, and Meerut through 15 operational stations, including Sarai Kale Khan, New Ashok Nagar, Anand Vihar, Sahibabad, Ghaziabad, Duhai, Murad Nagar, Modinagar South, and Modinagar North, before entering Meerut city. From Meerut South, the RRTS shares its final 4 stations โ Meerut South, Shatabdi Nagar, Begumpul, and Modipuram โ with the separate Meerut Metro Line, since both run on the same elevated viaduct through the city; Modipuram is the northern terminus for both. Namo Bharat uses a distance-based fare system with standard and premium coach options. MetroYatra provides station-wise pages, route maps, fare information, and train timings for Delhi-Meerut RRTS.

Delhi-Meerut RRTS News & Updates
Delhi-Meerut RRTS news covers new stations, route changes, service updates, and official announcements.
NCRTC Adds Eight More Namo Bharat Trips on Delhi-Meerut Route as Daily Ridership Nears 1 Lakh, Crosses 3 Crore Trips
NCRTC introduced eight additional Namo Bharat train trips on the Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut corridor in May 2026 to manage rising peak-hour crowds, four extra trips each in the morning and evening, backed by two more trains added to the fleet. Daily ridership on weekdays now ranges between 90,000 and 1,14,000.
The move came shortly after Namo Bharat crossed 3 crore passenger journeys in the first week of May 2026, less than five months after crossing the 2 crore mark in December 2025.
Delhi-Meerut RRTS Sets Ridership Record: Over 1 Lakh Passengers Travel on First Full Day of Complete Corridor
The Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut RRTS corridor recorded over 100,000 passengers on February 23, 2026, its first full day of operation after the complete 82.15-km stretch opened. NCRTC called it the highest-ever single-day ridership on the corridor, surpassing the previous record of over 85,000 passengers.
Travel time between Delhi and Meerut now takes approximately 55-59 minutes. NCRTC officials said the modal share on the corridor has shifted from 37 percent to 63 percent in favour of public transport since the full corridor opened.
Delhi-Meerut RRTS Fully Operational: PM Modi Inaugurates Final 26-km Stretch, Completing 82-km Namo Bharat Corridor
The full 82.15-km Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut RRTS corridor became operational on February 22, 2026, when PM Narendra Modi inaugurated the two remaining sections: the 5-km Sarai Kale Khan-New Ashok Nagar stretch in Delhi and the 21-km Meerut South-Modipuram stretch. The Rs 30,274 crore project, branded Namo Bharat, runs at a design speed of up to 180 kmph.
Sarai Kale Khan station opened as a multi-modal hub integrating Namo Bharat, Delhi Metro, Indian Railways and interstate bus services, cutting the Delhi-Meerut road journey to about 55-59 minutes.
Meerut Metro Launched as India's Fastest at 120 Kmph, Sharing Tracks With Namo Bharat in a Country-First Model
Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated Meerut Metro on February 22, 2026, making it India's fastest metro system with an operating speed of 120 kmph, surpassing the Delhi Airport Express Line's previous record of 110 kmph. The 21-km, 12-station line runs between Meerut South and Modipuram, covering the full stretch in about 30 minutes.
Meerut Metro is the first metro service in India to share tracks and infrastructure with a regional rapid transit system, running alongside Namo Bharat trains on the same corridor.
Meerut Metro and Namo Bharat Fares Finalised: Rs 20 Minimum, Single QR Ticket Valid Across Both Services
NCRTC finalised ticket fares for both Meerut Metro and Namo Bharat ahead of their February 22, 2026 launch. Meerut Metro fares range from Rs 20 to Rs 60 for the 21-km Meerut South-Modipuram stretch, while Namo Bharat fares for the full 82-km corridor range from Rs 20 to Rs 210 in standard class and Rs 40 to Rs 400 in premium class.
A single smart card or QR-based ticket works across both services, and passengers can also use the National Common Mobility Card (NCMC).
Namo Bharat Enters Delhi: PM Modi Opens 13-km Sahibabad-New Ashok Nagar Stretch With Underground Anand Vihar Station
Namo Bharat trains entered Delhi for the first time on January 5, 2025, when PM Narendra Modi inaugurated the 13-km Sahibabad-New Ashok Nagar stretch. The section includes a 6-km underground portion with Anand Vihar station, which connects the Blue and Pink Lines of Delhi Metro, a railway station, and an interstate bus terminal.
The extension took the operational length of the 82.15-km corridor to 55 km across 11 stations. Standard class fare for that stretch was set at Rs 150, premium class at Rs 225.
Namo Bharat RRTS Launches as India's First Regional Rapid Transit System: PM Modi Flags Off 17-km Sahibabad-Duhai Section
Namo Bharat, India's first Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS), began passenger service on October 21, 2023, a day after Prime Minister Narendra Modi flagged off the train from Sahibabad station in Ghaziabad. The 17-km priority section covers five stations, part of the larger 82.15-km Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut corridor.
The trains, built for a design speed of 180 kmph, were rebranded from RapidX to Namo Bharat ahead of launch. Standard class fare from Sahibabad to Duhai Depot was set at Rs 50, with premium class at Rs 100.
