Calcutta Muncipal Corp gives go ahead to start metro projects
Among others, Rail Vikas Nigam and Kolkata Metro Rail Corporation have been granted permission to resume work on the New Garia-Airport Metro link and East-West Metro, while strictly adhering to the guidelines related to the Covid-19. Meanwhile, Calcutta Municipal Corporation has cleared 129 infra projects to be executed within its jurisdiction. The civic body has directed builders that workers have to stay at the construction site and cannot step out. Also, no construction material — bricks, cement, sand or steel — can be procured from outside and work has to be carried out with the materials present at the site. The civic body official said that it received applications for 265 projects and only the ones that were outside the containment zones have been allowed to resume work with a rider that in case any worker tests positive for Covid-19, work has to be stopped immediately. The police has been empowered to stop construction work if any contractor is found violating the Covid-19 norms.
