Telangana CM KCR should set deadline for Metro Rail project completion in old city: Shabbir Ali

HYDERABAD: Former minister Md Ali Shabbir has demanded that chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao set a deadline for taking up works and completing the metro rail project work in the old city of Hyderabad, and also extend the project from Falaknuma to the international airport at Shamshabad.

The Congress leader charged the TRS and its friendly ally AIMIM of neglecting the metro rail project for the old city. “We welcome the state government’s proposal for the establishment of a 31-km long Airport Express Corridor although we suspect its completion as the TRS government has laid foundation stones but has not completed many projects,” he alleged.

“The TRS government has to its credit a large number of incomplete projects and CM KCR must clarify why the metro rail works in the old city of Hyderabad have not started?” he asked.
