Bharatiya Janata Party · Gujarat Legislative Assembly Election 2022
Last updated 12 Oct 2026
What does this status mean?
The term is active and there is no evidence of action or reversal.
Status describes delivery. Confidence describes how strong the available evidence is.
Original manifesto wording
“We will work with the Central Government to kickstart work on Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS) to transform the mobility of people within the Ahmedabad-Gandhinagar region (on the lines of Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut RRTS).”
Our Assessment
Ahmedabad–Gandhinagar metro services and later metro expansions are real, but they are different from the separately promised Delhi–Meerut-style RRTS. A 2026 GMRC tender uses the term 'Metro cum RRTS Hybrid' for a segment within Ahmedabad, not a documented Ahmedabad–Gandhinagar regional rapid-transit corridor. The reviewed records do not establish a sanctioned alignment or construction start for the promised RRTS, so the specific commitment remains Pending.
The reasoning behind the verdict
Why this assessment?
Reviewed
01 · Delivery status
Why pending?
The existing Ahmedabad–Gandhinagar metro is not the pledged RRTS. The available 2026 hybrid-corridor tender concerns an Ahmedabad segment and does not establish work on a regional Ahmedabad–Gandhinagar RRTS. Direct delivery of this promise has not been verified.
02 · Strength of evidence
Why low confidence?
Official metro and GMRC tender documents identify related transport work, but an official decision on the specific promised RRTS was not found. Low confidence reflects that gap.
What would help us reassess?
The documents that could clarify delivery of this commitment.
- Central and Gujarat government approval of an Ahmedabad–Gandhinagar RRTS alignment
- A dedicated DPR, funding agreement or implementing-agency order for the RRTS
- Construction tender, work order and site-mobilisation evidence on the approved regional route
