All necessary precautions were being taken to ensure that sensitive structures nearby are not affected in any way, Reddy emphasized adding that though the pace of work slowed down slightly during the Ramzan month, it has now picked up momentum again and was progressing smoothly.
The old city expansion works were being carried out at a fast pace and Metro construction would begin as soon as approval from the Central government was received NVS Reddy added. (Maxim News)
