Hyderabad: Chief Secretary S.P. Singh has told Hyderabad Metro Rail Limited authorities that work on the Metro Rail must be completed in 2017 and acquisition of land is a priority.

A list of properties to be acquired for the project has been handed over to the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation and the Wakf Board.

About 103 property owners have consented to selling their properties on the Badichowdi-Sultan Bazaar- Putlibowli stretch. Owners of seven properties between Ameerpet and Shilparamam have also given their consent.

The GHMC commissioner has been told to acquire the properties on priority at Krishnanagar and Siri Sampada Apartments on the Ameerpet stretch.

The Wakf Board has been told to ensure that tenants vacate the property at Musheerabad Junction for which payment has been released by the government.

The private property at Kundan Bagh must be handed over immediately as work on the Begumpet Metro station is pending. Properties under litigation must be resolved, said Mr Singh.
