Metro off track? Now, BMRCL asked to submit employee list as layoffs loom large

BHUBANESWAR: Months after halting work on the metro project to revise its masterplan, a fresh move by the state government asking the Bhubaneswar Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) to submit a list of employees whose services are no longer required has raised questions on the future of the project.

This development also comes after the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC), the turnkey consultant, scrapped tenders awarded to Ranjit Buildcon and Ceigall India for carrying out ground work of Phase-I of the project.
