Seventeen police stations and 48 outposts have been proposed along the Hyderabad Metro Rail Corridor here with state-of-the-art equipment and gadgets to ensure safety and security of people.
Decision in this regard was taken today at a meeting, wherein Telangana DGP Anurag Sharma reviewed the security arrangements for the Metro Rail Project. The meeting was attended by senior police and Metro Rail officers. "All the requirements were discussed threadbare and it was decided to deploy trained manpower for the security of the project. It was proposed to have five 'A' Category Police Stations, 12 'B' Category Police Stations and 48 Outposts along the Metro corridor," an official release said.
It was also decided that state-of-the-art equipment and gadgets will be used to ensure safety and security of people and the Metro project. Additional Director General of Police, (Railways and Road Safety) Krishna Prasad, gave a presentation on the security implications of the Metro Rail Project. Officers who attended the meeting included HMRL Managing Director NVS Reddy, Hyderabad City Commissioner of Police M Mahender Reddy among others.
The 72-km elevated project, being developed by L&T Metro Rail Hyderabad (L&TMRH), will have three corridors and 66 stations. It is the world's largest public-private partnership project (PPP) in the sector. The project was initially scheduled to be completed by July 2017, but delays like changes in alignment, land acquisition and other issues have resulted in the project overshooting the deadline and all the three Metro Rail corridors, including the one passing through the old city, would be completed by December 2018, authorities had earlier said.
