HYDERABAD, July 7: The DCO Hyderabad Aftab Ahmad Khatri has urged the Pakistan Railways to immediately issue a no-objection certificate for construction of a flyover at a railway crossing in Latifabad-7. This will enable the executing agency to complete project within the stipulated period.
He was presiding over a meeting held at his camp office here on Saturday. Latifabad Taluka Nazim Sabir Hussain Kaimkhani, Hyderabad Development Package Project Director Syed Sarfraz Shah and officers from the Hyderabad Cantonment Board, Pakistan Railways, Hesco, the SSGC, the PTCL, Latifabad TMA and Wasa attended the meeting and gave briefings about assignments entrusted to them for removal of infrastructure coming in the way of flyover scheme.
The DCO expressed surprise that the Pakistan Railways had still not issued an NoC, although construction work of the flyover was at full swing at its tendering cost of Rs450 million.
He said delay in the issuance of the NoC was creating technical problems for executing agency. He asked PR’s divisional engineer Mohammad Shafique, who was present at the meeting, to convey the message of the meeting to officers concerned of his department for issuance of the NoC without further delay.
The DCO told the meeting that almost all lines of the PTCL and the SSGC, 70 per cent lines of Hesco and infrastructure of the Cantonment Board, which was coming in the alignment of the flyover, had been shifted and the shifting work of Wasa lines was near completion.
He directed the Latifabad TMA to shift within a week all poles and remove billboards coming in the way of the flyover.
The project director of the Hyderabad Development Package said all stakeholder organisations, except the PR, were cooperating in implementation of the project. He said that on a request of the Cantonment Board, an additional ramp from the Alamgir Road to the Auto Bhan Road was also being incorporated in the flyover scheme. He expressed satisfaction over the pace of work.
