Impasse between BMRCL, Railways over land parcel

BENGALURU: The ongoing road widening work by Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) in KR Puram, has been held up thanks to a logjam over a parcel of land with the Railways. Two meetings have already been held between the departments to resolve the lingering issue. A spot visit scheduled for Tuesday by officials to carry out physical measurement of the land did not happen as railway officials could not make it.

The road widening work was started by BMRCL in connection with its Purple Line extension. It is being built from Benniganahalli up to K R Puram railway station.
