  Background

  
  With the rapid industrialization and commercial development of Jaipur city, teamed with a growing population, the transport infrastructure of Jaipur city was found to be stressed. As a result, the government mulled over establishment of Jaipur Metro on the lines of Delhi Metro which had proved to be a great success. Accordingly, DMRC was asked to do a feasibility study for Jaipur Metro. Once found feasible, a company under the name Jaipur Metro Rail Corporation Limited was incorporated on 1 January 2010 under the Companies Act, 1956. Detailed Project Report (DPR) of the project was prepared by Delhi Metro Rail Corporation Limited, New Delhi.^[3] In April 2011, Jaipur Metro Rail Corp appointed Mott MacDonald to advice on the tendering for the first 2 lines totalling 35km and costing Rs 100 billion.^[4]
