PMC to Transfer Land for Katraj Metro Station
The Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) is giving a piece of land in Katraj to the Maharashtra Metro Rail Corporation (Maha-Metro) to build a new metro station.
The land is worth about ₹1.67 crore and is currently used as a parking area.
Maha-Metro needs this land to make entry and exit points for the metro station.
PMC wants to make sure that the parking and bus stops are not affected and that there is no traffic jam.
Maha-Metro has to follow these rules and provide alternative solutions if needed.
The plan will be checked by different committees before the land is officially given to Maha-Metro.
PMC is transferring a 572.46-square-metre plot in Katraj to Maha-Metro for the proposed Katraj metro station.
The land is valued at ₹1.67 crore and is currently used as a temporary public parking facility.
Maha-Metro needs the land to build entry and exit points for the underground metro station.
PMC has set conditions to ensure public facilities are not disrupted and traffic congestion is avoided.
The proposal will go through various committees for approval before the land is officially transferred.
