The Delhi high court on Thursday asked the Union government and the city government to take instructions on whether they would give loans and guarantees to Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) to pay the unpaid arbitral award to Delhi Airport Metro Express Private Limited (DAMEPL), after the corporation moved court with a review plea against the attachment of its total funds in event of non failure of payment of the award.
In its plea, DMRC has said that the attachment of its statutory expenses will result in immediate stoppage of the entire metro network in the national capital region and cause inconvenience to more than 50 lakh commuters.
