Delhi: The 1.3-km-long, six-lane Pragati Maidan tunnel that was inaugurated yesterday June 19, 2022, by Prime Minister is now open for commuters. Collectively called Pragati Maidan Integrated Transit Corridor, the tunnel, as well as five underpasses, are aimed at providing smooth connectivity between Central, Southeast and New Delhi. It is expected to make the city's busy routes- Bhairon Marg, Ring Road and Mathura Road signal free.

The tunnel will connect Ring Road with India Gate via Purana Qila Road passing through Pragati Maidan and providing direct access to the Pragati Maidan Trade Centre. The colourful graffiti adds an added cheerfulness to the newly started underpass. Here is a visual tour for our readers-
