This would include 3.70 lakh passengers for Nagole-Airport corridor, 92,000 for Raidurg-Kokapet, 72,000 for MGBS-Chandrayanagutta, 1.65 lakh for Miyapur-Patancheru and 97,000 for LB Nagar-Hayatnagar. “There will be financial viability from initial period itself as high financial rate of interest and economic rate of return is expected for phase two,” he asserted.
