Calcutta HC Suggests Meeting to Resolve Metro Line Delay
The Calcutta High Court wants the people in charge of the Kavi Subhash-Airport Metro line to meet and figure out why they haven't gotten permission from the police to build part of the track.
The police need to approve construction.
This part is at Chingrighata.
Completing it will allow the metro to run from Kavi Subhash to Sector V stations.
The court suggested that all the groups involved meet to find a solution.
The lawyers agreed to tell the court when the meeting will happen.
The goal is to get the metro running for commuters as soon as possible.
A section of this line was inaugurated in August.
Calcutta High Court suggested a meeting to resolve police clearance issues.
The meeting involves stakeholders of the Kavi Subhash-Airport Metro line.
Police clearance is required for viaduct construction at Chingrighata.
Completion will enable commercial services between Kavi Subhash and Sector V.
The Court wants the stakeholders to meet next week.
