The December deadline for the Kochi Metro's Kakkanad extension could be impacted, as uncertainty persists regarding a long-pending loan of ₹1,200 crore from the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) intended for the extension. Consequently, the delay in securing the loan has also affected the pace of work on the extension project. In light of this, Kochi Metro Rail Limited (KMRL) has set a new deadline of March 2027 for the completion of viaducts and stations along the proposed 11.20-kilometer corridor—dubbed the Metro's 'Pink Line.' According to official sources, the Commissioner of Metro Rail Safety (CMRS) is expected to issue safety certification for the viaducts, stations, trains, and associated infrastructure on this corridor by June 2027.
