Patna Metro Sarthi is an independent website and app by RudraArc Technologies. It does not represent any government entity and is not affiliated with, authorised by or endorsed by PMRCL or any government authority.
These links open the original publishers. Each reference supports only the topic described below. Project reports are not a live timetable or an official fare or platform chart.
Chief Minister Secretariat release on the Malahi Pakri station inauguration and metro extension. It does not publish the app’s fare matrix, platform assignments or daily timetable.

https://openjicareport.jica.go.jp/pdf/1000053253_02.pdf#page=10 ↗Malahi Pakri outward fares use a supplied station fare-board photo. Return and other pair fares include traveller confirmations. These are locally supplied references, not a linked official online fare chart. Buy tickets at the station and follow its current fare display.
Platform 1 towards New ISBT and Platform 2 towards Malahi Pakri were supplied by the app owner for the four passenger stations. No official online platform notice is cited for this rule. Check the platform display before boarding; arrangements may change.
Journey minutes are an app estimate: 4 minutes per passenger-station interval plus 1 minute when passing Khemni Chak. They exclude waiting and are not scheduled departures. The 08:00–20:00 service window uses the news report below, not a station-specific first/last-train timetable. The owner-supplied 6.2 km Malahi Pakri–New ISBT total is supported by Hindustan; other pair distances use historical JICA alignment and need not sum to that total. Passenger availability combines government opening releases, news and traveller input; planned interchange identity never implies usable transfer.
Ticket, safety and helpline guidance was transcribed from station-board photos supplied to the developer. These photos are local reference material, not a published government URL. Current station signs and staff instructions take precedence.
Media report used for the 08:00–20:00 service window and extension context. This is a news publisher, not a government source or a live timetable. The reported end-to-end time is not the app’s per-pair calculation.
