Metro rail expansion in Hyderabad! Telangana Cabinet approves Rs 60,000 crore expansion plan; talks about second airport in the city

“We hope they (NDA government at the Centre) will cooperate with us. If this government does not help us, a coalition government would come anyway after 2024. The role of BRS would be crucial in that. We are confident that we will achieve it there,” Rama Rao said.

The Telangana cabinet has approved a Rs 60,000 plan for the expansion of the metro rail network in Hyderabad over the next three-four years. The cabinet meeting was presided over by Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao.

While briefing the reporters on the meeting, State Municipal Administration Minister K T Rama Rao said that a decision has been taken to expand the rail on a large scale to bolster public transport in the city. He said the metro rail expansion would occur on many routes that connect Hyderabad to its outskirts in several directions. He noted that the Chief Minister has already laid the foundation stone for metro rail between Raidurgam to the airport.

“Altogether, the cabinet approved expansion of metro rail with Rs 60,000 crores in addition to the 101 kms taken up earlier. The CM directed our municipal department to complete this project in the coming three-four years,” he added.

Proposals are soon to be submitted by the metro rail authorities and the municipal department. Rama Rao said he hoped that the central government would offer its help in implementing the project just as it did in other cities. However, he added that the state government will take it up itself if the Centre does not help.

“We hope they (NDA government at the Centre) will cooperate with us. If this government does not help us, a coalition government would come anyway after 2024. The role of BRS would be crucial in that. We are confident that we will achieve it there,” he said.

Telangana: Man suffers massive heart attack while playing badminton, 7th case in 2 weeks in state; video surfaces |

On Tuesday in Hyderabad at the Professor Jayashankar Indoor Stadium, a 38-year-old man passed away after collapsing while playing badminton. In Telangana, there have been five similar incidents in the last two weeks. The incident was recorded on a camera placed in the stadium. The man has been identified as Shyam Yadav, a resident of the Malkajgiri neighbourhood of Hyderabad.

On the badminton court, Yadav is seen in the footage laying on the floor while multiple people check to see if he is breathing.

Some argue that he could have survived if urgent cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) had been administered.
