Kochi Metro May Soon Be Renamed as Keralam Metro

Kochi Metro will soon be renamed Keralam Metro, with the operator, Kochi Metro Rail Limited (KMRL), recommending the change to the state government. 

In a proposal submitted to the government, KMRL Managing Director Loknath Behera sought in-principle approval for the new



name. 

The metro rail authorities are making this suggestion given the company’s expanding role in urban transport projects across Kerala.

The company is planning and implementing urban transport projects across the state and overseeing water transport and electric mobility initiatives.
