Responding to a letter from Union Minister G Kishan Reddy, the CM outlined the state’s diligent preparations. He cited his meeting with Manohar Lal Khattar, emphasizing relentless pursuit of necessary approvals.

Kishan Reddy had flagged the absence of state nominees in a proposed joint committee for the project. Revanth Reddy clarified that structural details were promptly sent to the urban affairs ministry, quashing any procedural delays.

The CM appealed to Kishan Reddy to expedite the process using his clout, stressing continuous coordination. This comes after the minister’s recent nudge to acquire Phase-I assets from L&T, paving the way for Phase-II advancement.

The center has granted in-principle approval, contingent on Phase-I completion and joint committee activation. Kishan Reddy voiced worries about timelines, urging swift action to benefit Hyderabad’s commuters.

Telangana’s transport minister echoed the urgency, noting Phase-II’s 76-km extension would link key suburbs, reduce traffic snarls, and spur real estate booms. Infrastructure experts predict it could handle millions of passengers daily.

Political undercurrents aside, the project’s success depends on bureaucratic harmony. With elections looming, both sides appear motivated to deliver for the city’s 10 million residents.

Hyderabad’s metro dream edges closer, promising a greener, faster urban future if approvals align.
