Karnataka HC directs BBMP to take independent decision on Ejipura flyover

The High Court on Tuesday disposed of a PIL contending delay in completion of Ejipura flyover and directed Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) to take an independent decision after sorting out differences with project proponent Simplex Infrastructure Limited.

A division bench headed by Acting Chief Justice Alok Aradhe has directed the BBMP to hold a meeting with the company within one week to sort out the differences. It was informed to the court that Simplex Infrastructure Limited has expressed its willingness to complete the project within a time limit of nine months from the date it is permitted to resume the construction. The court directed the BBMP to take an independent decision within two weeks after giving an opportunity to Simplex Infrastructure Limited.
