Two TBMs boring in parallel have emerged after "covering a length of approximately 2997 metres, at an average rate of 8.2 metres per tunnel per day".
They were operated by Afcons Infra.
Twin Breakthroughs always attract attention.
The project, executed by Afcons, involved tunneling through densely populated areas and beneath sensitive zones like the Najafgarh drain, with no damage reported to surrounding structures.
The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) has completed the first twin tunnel breakthrough as part of its Phase-IV construction works, an official statement said.
