NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Wednesday ordered the Delhi government to pay its share for the two corridors connecting Delhi to Alwar and Panipat under the Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS), warning that it could revive a previous order to deduct the money from its advertisement budget in case of default.
The top court’s direction came on an application by the National Capital Regional Transport Corporation Ltd (NCRTC), the agency constructing the corridors, which complained about Delhi delaying payment of its share of ₹100 crore for the Delhi-Alwar corridor and ₹50 crore for the Delhi-Panipat corridor for 2023-24.
