TG CM lays stone for elevated corridor in Hyd

Hyderabad: Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy laid foundation stone for Rajiv Rahadari (State Highway 01) Elevated Corridor at TIMS, Alwal in Secunderabad on Thursday. The construction of Rajiv Rahadari Elevated Corridor will ease traffic problems on Medchal, Quthbullapur, Karimnagar and Adilabad stretch.

The project was pending for years as the Centre and State governments locked horns on some issues. The previous government sidelined the project and neglected the people’s needs, the CM claimed. “Soon after coming to power, our government spoke to the Union government and found a solution to the problem.

I met Prime Minister and Defence Minister, and appraised them of the pending project issue,” he said. “The previous government delayed the allocation of land and the renewal of the lease of the Chandrayana Gutta Defence land. Our government reviewed with the authorities and handed over the defence lands,” Revanth Reddy said.

“The Medchal area will be developed at the fast pace once the elevated corridor works are completed. State cooperated and the centre and in return the union government helped the state’s government. People suffered a lot due to the crooked policies adopted by the previous government during its 10 year regime,” he added.
