The Delhi government on Tuesday approved the construction of an integrated structure — comprising a flyover and a Metro track — to connect the proposed Metro stations of Yamuna Vihar and Bhajanpura in north-east Delhi and said the project, to be executed jointly by the public works department (PWD) and the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC), will be completed in two years.
A meeting of the expenditure finance committee (EFC), attended by deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia, also sanctioned ₹210.10 crore for the project and said the whole project would lead to overall savings of ₹180 crore of the taxpayers’ money.
The EFC also approved the construction of a block comprising six new buildings at the Netaji Subhash University of Technology (NSUT) in Sector 4, Dwarka, at an estimated cost of ₹230.61 crore, and said the block will enable the university to add 3,900 more seats.
