Revanth Govt Clears Central Hurdles for ‘Mehdipatnam Skywalk’
The line has been cleared for the construction of the skywalk at Mehdipatnam in Hyderabad City. HMDA has announced that the skywalk will be constructed soon. Due to the increased traffic congestion, there have always been proposals to build a skyway here for the safety of those who walk on the roads. The Central Department Of Defence did not agree to give their lands located in the Rythu Bazar area. Efforts made by the previous government to transfer the 0.51-acre land under the Defense Department were in vain. As the central government did not respond, the work of the skywalk was stopped. Due to this, the traffic problem in Mehdipatnam Rythu Bazar area, which is very busy, has increased day by day.

As soon as Revanth Reddy assumed power as Telangana CM, he focused on measures to overcome traffic congestion in the city. When he went to Delhi on 5th January, he specially met the Defense Minister. The Minister responded positively after explaining the need to transfer the Defense Department lands to them. The CM made many changes in the design of the skyway in accordance with suggestions of the central government without disturbing the defence zone there. The revised proposals have been sent to the Centre recently.

The central government has given approval to allot the land as required for the construction of the skyway. A total of 3,380 square yards of land will be handed over to the Telangana government. In lieu of the transferred lands, the State government will have to provide infrastructure worth Rs 15.15 crores to the Central Defence Department. Additionally, a license fee has to be paid for ten years for a certain amount of land. The Ministry of Defense has agreed to hand over these lands within four weeks.

హైదరాబాద్ సిటీలో మెహదీపట్నంలో స్కై వాక్ నిర్మాణానికి లైన్ క్లియర్ అయింది. త్వరలోనే స్కై వే నిర్మించనున్నట్లు @HMDA_Gov ప్రకటించింది. పెరిగిన ట్రాఫిక్ రద్దీ కారణంగా రోడ్లపై నడిచి వెళ్లే వారి భద్రత దృష్ట్యా ఇక్కడ స్కై వే నిర్మించాలనే ప్రతిపాదనలు ఎప్పటినుంచే ఉన్నాయి. రైతు బజార్…
