The Madras High Court on Friday asked Chennai Metro Rail Limited (CMRL) not to consider a public interest litigation (PIL) petition, filed for making its stations persons with disabilities (PwD)-friendly, as an adversarial litigation and instead take immediate steps to make them universally accessible.
First Division Bench of Chief Justice Sanjay V. Gangapurwala and Justice D. Bharatha Chakravarthy ordered conduct of another access audit in the existing stations under phase I of the metro project in Chennai, so that appropriate suggestions could be made to the CMRL.
