The ticket prices for the Hyderabad Metro Rail, which is scheduled to be inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on November 28, will be notified in a day or two, Telangana Chief Secretary SP Singh said today.


The transit system will be thrown open to public from November 29, Singh said.


"The proposal for pricing is ready. The concessionaire has already submitted it. The departments concerned have also discussed it. The prices will be notified in a day or two once our Chief Minister (K Chandrasekhar Rao) clears it," Singh told PTI.


As per an earlier government notification in 2011, the basic fare for up to 2 km was fixed at Rs 8. However, the present price is expected to go up given the current circumstances, a senior official of the Municipal Administration department said.  -- PTI
