BRTS hearing to be held in High Court today
Indore.
The decision to construct the elevated corridor was made in a meeting with the Chief Minister, leaving the Municipal Corporation in a dilemma as to what decision to make regarding the two approved tender packages and the third package tender that has already been called. Currently, construction of the central divider has been postponed until the meeting on December 19th. However, the central divider will have to be constructed from Niranjanpur to LIG and then from Navlakha to Rajiv Gandhi Square, as the process of removing the BRTS railings and demolishing the beams is also underway.
tomorrow in the high court
The ongoing petition regarding the BRTS could not be heard because the officials were not present. Therefore, the hearing is scheduled for today. Meanwhile, the committee of advocates constituted by the High Court has submitted its report, which will also be discussed. Meanwhile, Rajendra Rathore, in-charge of the Corporation’s Public Works Committee, says that the Chief Minister’s meeting decided to build an elevated bridge from LIG to Navlakha, which will require a central divider in this area.
There will be no need for this, and a meeting has been scheduled for December 19th under the chairmanship of departmental minister Kailash Vijayvargiya, in which other projects related to the city including the elevated bridge will be discussed. However, Rathore also says that since the elevated bridge is to be built only between LIG and Navlakha, therefore, work on the central divider will have to be done from Niranjanpur to LIG and then from Navlakha to Rajiv Gandhi. However, two bridges will also be constructed by MPIDC from Niranjanpur to Satyasai Square.
Flyovers are being constructed, which means a central divider will not be necessary for the entire stretch. The Municipal Corporation has already approved two packages for the construction of central dividers and has just issued tenders for the third package, which runs from Indira Gandhi Square to Rajiv Gandhi Square. The Corporation has also prepared the drawing and design of the central divider. Now it remains to be seen what guidelines will be given during today’s hearing in the High Court.
