Mandai is an underground metro station on the north–south corridor of thePurple Line ofPune Metro inPune, India. The station was opened on 29 September 2024 as the final extension of Pune Metro Phase I.[1] It is named afterMahatma Phule Mandai which is located next to it.[2]
As per the initial plan, Mandai station is the longest among other Pune Metro stations spanning 248m long.[3] The work on this station began after the commercial establishments which encroached the area were cleared by thePune Municipal Corporation from the allocated space for construction.[4][5] Two parallel tunnels being dug fromSwargate metro station reached here in December 2021.[6] In June 2022, Maha-Metro had placed iron decking on a patch of a road near the site to continue the subway excavation work without affecting the traffic movement.[7] After the inauguration of the metro services at this station, the PMC undertook a₹1.25 crore plan to improve the surrounding area of Mandai.[8]
A fire had broken out at the metro station around midnight on 21 October 2024. It was caused due to the insulating foam material in the air-conditioning ducts which caught the sparks from the ongoing welding work. No injuries were reported due this incident and the train operations resumed at the scheduled time of 6am later in the day.[9]
