Where Patna projects tend to lose money
Budget, committed and actual, per site, every day.
The Ganga bridge foundation stone was laid in 2016 and completion was only expected in mid-2026, and the metro estimate is about ₹13,925 crore.
How it worksThe daily report writes itself, the same evening.
The metro is opening in stretches while underground and elevated sections are built, so progress by package must be tracked.
How it worksLitres per hour against each machine’s normal.
Ganga bridge works on 67 piers and metro civil works rely on heavy plant and cranes.
How it worksFigures in the screens above are sample data.
