  • Rs 2,500 crore for Metro rail expansion in Hyderabad

    Rs 2,500 crore for Metro rail expansion in Hyderabad

    [ad_1]

    Hyderabad: The Telangana government on Monday allocated Rs 2,500 crore for the Metro Rail project in Hyderabad including for extending metro services to the old city and for metro connectivity to the airport.

    In the Budget for 2023-24 presented in the State Assembly, Rs 1,500 crore has been allocated for Hyderabad Metro Rail (HMR).

    The government also allocated Rs 500 crore each for extending Metro Rail services to the old city and metro connectivity to Rajiv Gandhi International Airport at Shamshabad.

    State Finance minister T. Harish Rao, in his budget speech, only elaborated on the allocation made for metro connectivity to the airport.

    He noted that the number of air travelers using the international airport has been increasing day by day. The expansion facilities at the airport at a cost of Rs 7,500 crore have been taken up to meet the requirements even if the air traffic goes up to 4 crore passengers per year. He said the expanded facilities will be completed by June.

    The minister said with the objective of facilitating passengers to reach the airport in the shortest possible time from different areas, it has been envisaged to extend metro rail services to the airport. This metro line will commence from Raidurg and terminate at Shamshabad Airport covering a distance of 31 km.

    Recently, Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao laid the foundation for metro connectivity to the airport. This project will be taken up at a cost of Rs 6,250 crore with the own resources of the State government and will be completed within the next three years, he said.

    Another Rs 500 crore has been allocated for extending Hyderabad Metro Rail services to the old city. An equal amount was allocated in the Budget for the previous year but the work was not taken up.

    L&T Metro Rail Hyderabad (L&TMRH) has completed the first phase of the Metro Rail project across three corridors to a total length of 69.2 km. While L. B. Nagar to Miyapur and Nagole to Raidurg corridors have been completed, Jubilee Bus Station (JBS) to Falaknuma is yet to be completed. On the third corridor, connectivity has been provided from JBS to Mahatma Gandhi Bus Station (MGBS) also called Imlibun.

    The developer has not taken up expansion in the old city due to lack of permission. Religious and heritage structures along the proposed route in the old city and financial losses suffered by the developer and operator due to Covid-19 pandemic are cited as the reasons for the delay in construction of Metro works on the 5.5 km stretch.

    The state government has still not made clear if it will fund the work in the old city on its own. The concessionaire is unlikely to fund the works as the project cost has already escalated substantially for property acquisition, shift of utilities like electricity lines, water pipelines and the construction of elevated viaducts as well as stations.

    In 2021, AL&TMRHL sought the state government’s help to overcome the losses it incurred due to the pandemic.

    The 73-km elevated metro is the biggest metro project in the world in public private partnership (PPP) model built at a total cost of Rs 20,000 crore.

  • Hyderabad: NIA takes over ‘terror attack conspiracy case’

    Hyderabad: NIA takes over ‘terror attack conspiracy case’

    [ad_1]

    Hyderabad: The Ministry of Home Affairs directed the National Investigation Agency (NIA) to take over the terror attack conspiracy case which was being handled by the CCS.

    CCS arrested the accused trio including Abdul Zahed, Sameeduddin and Maaz Hasson Farooq from Moosarambagh, in October 2022, for allegedly planning to carry out terror attacks in the city before Dasara.

    The accused Abdul Zahed, a resident of Moosarambagh was booked under Sections 18, 18(B) and 20 of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act for being a part of several terror-related cases in Hyderabad.

    He had recruited several youths, including Maaz Hasson Farooq and Sameeduddin based on the directions of Pakistan-based handlers who belong to LeT/ISI.

    He reportedly conspired with his gang members to carry out terror acts, including blasts and lone-wolf attacks in Hyderabad.

    Zahed had also received hand grenades from his handlers from across the border and was planning to hurl those at public gatherings or during processions in order to create communal tension in the city, according to a police FIR.

    The police seized two hand grenades, two mobile phones and Rs 3.91 lakh cash from Zahed during the probe.

    However, the NIA is of the opinion that a scheduled offence under National Investigation Agency Act, 2008 has been committed as it has inter-state and international links, and it is required to be investigated by the central agency.

    The CCS Hyderabad police have handed over the case files to NIA officials.
