To accommodate the city’s rapid expansion, Congress MP Komitreddy Venkat Reddy has requested Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao to extend the Hyderabad Metro Rail from LB Nagar to Hayatnagar. The need for this extension has been long-standing, particularly among inhabitants of Abdullahpurmet and surrounding regions on Hyderabad’s southern outskirts.
Currently, the metro network only extends to LB Nagar station, posing problems for government and private personnel who live in the forward areas and struggle to get to work on time. Because the highways are becoming increasingly congested and traffic congestion is on the rise, many people prefer to go by metro.
Recognizing the expanding popularity of the metro and the need for improved transit choices, the state administration had already chosen to suggest the expansion plan to the Centre. However, development has been delayed, prompting MP Venkat Reddy to intercede and propose that the government approach the Centre once more in order to speed the metro rail project up to Hayatnagar.
In response to Venkat Reddy’s representation, Union Urban Development Minister Hardeep Puri indicated support for the expansion plan. He did, however, clarify that no official proposal has yet been received from the Telangana government. Nonetheless, he promised to raise the issue with the state administration in order to move the project forward.
The extension of the Hyderabad Metro Rail to Hayatnagar has enormous promise for reducing the commute hardships of thousands of people living in the city’s rapidly increasing suburbs. The goal of a well-connected and efficient public transportation system in Hyderabad can soon become a reality with the backing of both state and federal officials.
