Hyderabad Metro’s future hangs in balance amid center-state parleys. Telangana CM A Revanth Reddy stated Tuesday his government maintains round-the-clock liaison with Delhi for Phase-II clearance.
Detailing progress in a letter to Union Minister G Kishan Reddy, Revanth Reddy invoked his recent parley with Manohar Lal Khattar. All procedural boxes are being ticked, he assured.
Kishan Reddy had noted Telangana’s pending nominations to a bipartite committee. The CM responded that committee frameworks were already shared with the ministry, advocating persistent dialogue.
He beseeched Kishan Reddy’s support to truncate the approval timeline for this overdue venture. Previously, the minister insisted on securing Phase-I from L&T, a prerequisite for Phase-II’s in-principle sanctioned extension.
Expressing impatience with holdups, Kishan Reddy sought prompt proposals and panel staffing to serve Hyderabad’s populace. The 76-km Phase-II aims to alleviate gridlock in high-density areas.
Urban planners highlight its role in sustainable development, integrating with bus rapid transit and promoting multimodal hubs. Financial models project robust returns via ridership surge.
With both governments aligned on intent, minor hurdles like asset transfers could soon dissolve. Revanth Reddy’s proactive stance underscores electoral promises of world-class infrastructure.
Ultimately, Phase-II’s rollout will redefine mobility, fostering inclusive growth for Hyderabad’s diverse demographics.
