Glitches galore for MMTS Phase II

If the MMTS Phase 1, which had started with a flourish, promised a lot and then plateaued, Phase 2 operations, meant to connect the city’s suburbs on different ends, have been 90% complete, if we go by the word of top South Central Railway (SCR) officials.

Phase 2 will connect Secunderabad to Ghatkesar through Moula Ali, Bolarum, Medchal, Falaknuma to Umdanagar via Shamshabad airport, Moula Ali to Sanatnagar, Moula Ali to Sitaphalmandi and Telapur to Ramachandrapuram or a total of 84 km.

Except for Sanatnagar-Moula Ali and Moula Ali-Malkajgiri-Sitaphalmandi sections, all are completed including doubling or more lines and electrification. Three stations have been restored on the Telapur-R.C. Puram line, including BHEL station.
