Loading ...C Ramachandraiah of Centre for Economic and Social Studies and Omim Mamickshaw Debara of Forum for a Better Hyderabad filed a writ petition in the AP High Court on Monday, seeking its intervention to restrain the authorities from going ahead with the metro rail project in the city.
Their argument was that the construction cannot go ahead without obtaining environmental clearance from the union ministry of environment and forests.
The petitioners pleaded with the court that the metro rail project should not be cleared till the public and the interested persons are heard, they said.
Public should first be informed of all the details as indicated in the AP Municipal Tramways (Construction, operation and maintenance) about this project, they contended.
