Overview
Patna Metro has two planned corridors. The part that carries passengers is on Corridor-2, the North-South line: four elevated stations from Patliputra Bus Terminal through Zero Mile and Bhootnath to Malahi Pakri, about 6.2 km according to a news report of 2 July 2026.
Khemni Chak, the next stop, is built, but the same report said trains did not stop there yet. The rest of Corridor-2, including the underground stations towards Patna Junction, and all of Corridor-1 (East-West) are under construction. After a review on 11 October 2026 the state government asked for completion by 2028. That is a target, not an opening date.
News reports give fares of Rs 15 up to 3 km and Rs 30 for 3 to 6 km. PMRCL's official fare chart and timetable were not available to us, so the hub shows no first or last train for Patna and says so plainly. The operator's website had an expired security certificate when we checked on 12 November 2026.
The Patna guide keeps station pages and fare notes with their sources, and it marks anything unconfirmed as not published.
