New Delhi: The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation's Line-4, connecting Yamuna Bank with Vaishali in Ghaziabad, has been awarded Carbon Neutral certification, marking a key achievement in DMRC's ongoing efforts to promote sustainable urban transport and tackle climate change. This milestone demonstrates DMRC’s dedication to reducing its carbon emissions and contributing to global climate goals.
This achievement follows DMRC’s earlier success in obtaining carbon neutral certification for its corporate headquarters at Metro Bhawan and the staff quarters in Sector-50, Noida.
