Kochi Metro Rail Limited Recruitment Notification for Engineers

Job Info:

Company Name: Kochi Metro Rail Limited

Company Profile: On 22 December 2004, the Government of Kerala assigned the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) the task of preparing the detailed project report (DPR) for the Kochi Metro rail project. It was expected to start by 2006 and complete by 2010. But the project was delayed because the Central Government expressed serious doubts about the economic viability of the project.[7] The Kerala government had sought Central Government's assistance for the project to be built on the lines of the Delhi Metro project in terms of funding. The Centre refused this request.[8] The Union Government was in favour of implementing the project in public–private partnership (PPP), ruling out its own financial involvement. The Ministry of Urban Development and the Planning Commission were also against government investment in the project, and refused to accept it as a project in line with the Delhi and Chennai metros. The political rivalry between the LDF government in Kerala and the UPA government at the Centre was a major reason for such developments and the slow down in the project. The change in government in Kerala changed that scenario, making the Kochi Metro one of the top priorities of the UDF government.
