Source: Financial Chronicle  30/07/2014

Despite the division of the state, and contrary to popular belief, real estate projects in Hyderabad do not seem to have dwindled. Of the largescale projects to hit the market, Rajapushpa’s Atria in Kokapet, a high rise residential scheme located near the financial district of the city — Gachibowli — that houses top corporate houses, is considered promising.

Targetted at buyers looking at options of residing close to their workplace, the locality offers good social infrastructure in terms of schools, shopping malls and hospitals. It is just a stone’s throw away from the ORR junction, giving easy access to most of Hyderabad.

The gated community, in keeping with present architectural trends, offers landscaped green space, clubhouse and other amenities. Approximately, four acres of the 14.5 acres earmarked for the project will be built up and the rest will be left open. The project has 10 towers that come with a two-level car parking. Each tower will have 15 floors.

Sizes of the flats vary, but minimum area is fixed at 1,345 sq ft. Customers are offered two, three or four-bedroom options. Per sq ft will cost Rs 3,700. There will be roughly 1,100 apartments and the company has 12 unit plans to choose from.

As for the amenities, there is a a sprawling clubhouse (42,000 sq ft) that has a meditation centre, convention hall and a conference room. Other offerings include centralised piped gas supply, round the clock security with CCTV surveillance, complete power back up, tennis court, swimming pool and kids’ play area. The possession for these flats will begin by the end of this year.

Besides Atria, Rajapushpa has projects such as Retreat and Cannon Dale in the same locality to its credit. zz

L&T Hyderabad Metro achieves major milestone

Source: Business Line  July27, 2014

 

Hyderabad Metro rail project has created a construction record today with the erection of the 1.000th viaduct span and completion of 27 Km of metro viaduct in just 20 months.

The first span was erected in December 2012, the 1,000th span was erected today.

This marks completion of 38 per cent of the viaduct works (out of a total of 2,665 spans required for 72 km) so far, according to a statement from Hyderabad Metro.

Mumbai took about seven years to complete 11 km of Metro viaduct, Bangalore and Chennai took over 5 years to complete about 25 km of viaduct each; and Delhi took more than 3 years to achieve the same, the statement further mentioned.

On being informed by MD of Hyderabad Metro, NVS Reddy, about this engineering feat, the Chief Minister K.Chandrasekhar Rao congratulated the team of engineers in HMR and L&T.

As on date 1,473 foundations (56 per cent), 1,370 pillars (52 per cent) are completed, he stated.

The Government facilitated setting up of India’s two biggest precast yards, one at Uppal in 70 acres and another one at Qutubullahpur in 62 acres.

L&T then established factory-like precast yards with sophisticated machinery like automatic steel cutting and bending machines etc., to produce precast segments each weighing about 40 tonnes.

These precast segments are being transported in the night on low bedded trolleys to various Metro construction sites and erected between Metro pillars with the help of “launching girders”. In all, 15 launching girders are being used to carry out these erection works simultaneously at several spots.

While the average length between 2 pillars is 100 feet which is bridged with 11 precast segments, the average length between 2 station pillars is about 50 feet which is bridged with six precast segments. After dry matching these prearranged segments, they are glued and tied with a bunch of iron strands from inside, which are elongated to their maximum capacity in “post tensioning” method and then permanently grouted. These viaduct spans can withstand heavy loads and 21 types of stresses caused by two running trains and natural forces including heavy gales and earthquakes.

This kind of precasting method where almost 85 per cent of the Metro works has facilitated rapid construction and minimum inconvenience to road users.

Usage of hi-tech shuttering material; single pour of concrete upto 40 feet height with very good surface finish; usage of curing compounds instead of conventional water curing; multilevel quality checks ensuring safety and good quality works; and other global best conspractices have already won Hyderabad Metro many awards including “The Global Engineering Project of the Year," V.B. Gadgil, MD of L&T Metro Rail Hyderabad Limited, said.

Industrial Corridor between Hyderabad and Warangal


KCR further explained about his government’s plan to make Warangal, the second biggest city in Telangana, an industrial hub. He said an industrial corridor would be built from Hyderabad to Warangal. Besides an airport, alternative road would be constructed to reduce travel time between Hyderabad and Warangal to 70 minutes. He added a textile park on the lines of the famous Tirupur Park in Tamil Nadu is being planned in 2,000 acres land.

The Chief Minister directed the industry department to study the industrial policy being implemented in Singapore, which yielded amazing results boosting the industrial sector there.

He directed Telangana State Industrial and Infrastructure Corporation (TSIIC) to maintain data of all available government lands useful for industrial purposes besides acquiring non-agricultural lands in 10 districts.

KCR also directed officials to convene a meeting in the next few days with industry heads from FICCI, CII and other bodies to take their inputs on industrial policy.Singapore type industrial model to be studied

Telangana to get satellite township-like pharma city

Source: Business Standerd  July 11,2014

 Giving an early glimpse into the Telangana government’s new initiatives on the industrial development front, Governor ESL Narasimhan on Wednesday announced the setting up of apharma city for further expansion of the industry in the region.

Telangana accounts for one-third of the pharma production in the country and to maintain this growth and give a further boost, the state government would lay emphasis on expansion of existing pharma, bio-tech and other industries, he said.

“We wish to promote a pharma city as one of the satellite townships, which will have government-run effluent treatment services to have complete pollution management. This will attract further investments in this sector in the coming years,” Narasimhan said while addressing the first joint session of the state legislative Assembly.

The decision is expected to be a huge positive for the pharma industry in Hyderabad as many big companies had to establish their second base in north-coastal Andhra owing to the constraints related to pollution concerns in the existing location. Companies like Dr Reddy’s and Aurobindo have lined up huge investments for expanding capacities this year.

Besides, the state government would promote an industrial corridor between Hyderabad and Warangal to boost employment opportunities, he said.

A newly-expanded six-lane national highway connects the Warangal city, about 146 km from here, with the state capital and runs beyond Warangal to provide connectivity with mineral-rich Chhattisgarh. The Hyderabad-Warangal corridor is expected to provide an ideal environment for the growth of industries.

To put a model system of single window clearance for industrial projects, a special chasing cell would be attached to the chief minister’s office to give speedy clearances to the upcoming units with zero corruption and no harassment to potential investors, the Governor said. The government would also formulate the best industry policy to give the required boost to the economy, he said.

In an effort to get over the power problem, the government would facilitate the NTPC to set up a 4,000-Mw thermal power plant by providing the land and water required for the project and would also develop an additional 2,000 Mw capacity under the state-owned Telangana Genco.

“We will also establish on war footing the requisite grid lines and distribution networks in order to purchase and supply power from the state of Chhattisgarh within the next three years. With all these coordinated efforts, we will make Telangana a surplus power state,” the Governor said.

Apart from reiterating some of the ruling Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS)’s election promises like farm loan waiver up to Rs 1 lakh and 12 per cent reservation to STs and minorities, the Governor also announced new steps in agriculture including development of Telangana into specific crop-colonies and exemption of taxes for agriculture tractors.

The government also promised to provide compulsory and free education to the needy from KG to PG with CBSE syllabus in English medium.

Hyderabad 'to become biggest city in India'

Source: Gulf News  July 8, 2014
Hyderabad: The ambitious and grand vision of Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao for Telangana state includes, apart from many other things, two more airports for Hyderabad.
He presented his vision at “Re-inventing Telangana”, a brain storming session with the ministers, advisors to the government and the government officials from across the state.
KCR told the meeting that with IT Investment Region (ITIR) coming up in the city, the population of Hyderabad will increase rapidly reaching 35 million in three to five years from present 9.4 million and one airport will not be sufficient. He suggested building two more airports one at Shamirpet in the northern part and at Ghaktesar in the east of Hyderabad.
Hyderabad at present has a world class private sector international airport planned in a way to meet the requirements of next three decades. Apart from that the old Begumpet airport was also lying unused.

KCR’s vision also envisages a rapid transport system, which will enable the people from any part of the state to reach Hyderabad in 21 minutes. “This will discourage migration of people in surrounding areas”, he said. Hyderabad, he said will be a growth engine and become the biggest city in the country in sixe and population and the government will have to take measures to meet the needs of the people.
His two and a half hour long address at the meeting covered all the aspects of the administration ranging from irrigation and agriculture to rural and urban development, power and housing.
He said that the illegal constructions had become a curse for Hyderabad as it had destroyed many lakes. He asked the officials to initiate measures to regularize the 58000 illegal constructions in Hyderabad and also address the same problem in other districts of the state.
He smelled a rat in the housing schemes and pointed out that in many cases records show that houses were built and funds were released but they did not reach the beneficiaries. He said that 5.5 million houses were sanctioned and 4 million were built. He asked the officials to unearth the scam and take action against the culprits.
In the public distribution system he said the biggest anomaly was the number of ration cards. “The state has only 8.4 million households but here are 10.07 million ration cards”, he said asking the officials to take action to weed out the bogus cards. He said these excess cards were being used to siphon out the rice and other essential commodities.
To make agriculture beneficial for the farmers, he announced that a program wll be launched for the soil testing in the stat and crop colonies will be developed. On the power front he said that state needs more 6000 MW power generation capacity to tide over the crisis.

90 Metro Rail Piers Get Police Clearance

Source: The New Indian Express  July 11, 2014

HYDERABAD: With regard to traffic police permissions to speed up the Hyderabad metro rail works in different parts of the city with proper traffic management plans, a joint coordination meeting was held between commissioner of police M.Mahendar Reddy and HMR managing director NVS Reddy at the Hyderabad police commissionerate here on Thursday.

NVS Reddy informed the police commissioner on the uniqueness of Hyderabad Metro's financial model, challenges faced in its execution and the innovative technical solutions being adopted to minimise inconvenience to road users during construction.

He explained that once completed, the metro rail would not only ease the traffic congestion in the city but would also catapult Hyderabad into the league of global cities with its features like integration among different modes of transport, dedicated feeder buses, pedestrian facilities, bicycle stations and quality public space at stations.

Highlighting the need for police clearance for more work fronts to speed up the project, he discussed with senior police officers the details of different metro work areas. 

While appreciating the issues raised by the metro rail chief, the police commissioner  advised senior traffic police officers to give work permissions at as many places as possible for optimal utilisation of machinery and manpower mobilised by the concessionaire, L&T Metro Rail (Hyderabad) Ltd.

At the same time, he requested NVS Reddy to ensure that metro works were taken up in a phased manner and move forward stretch by stretch so as not to hamper traffic movement. He also sought immediate road restoration and repairs where metro works have been completed. 

After identifying various stretches where metro works can be permitted, it was agreed that traffic police permissions would be granted for about 90 pier (pillar) foundations at various places immediately and for another 160 piers thereafter. 

Mahendar Reddy also requested HMR to improve junctions, provide well designed signages,signals and create U-turns and pedestrian crossings in the stretches where metro viaduct construction was completed, duly taking inputs from the traffic police.  HMR agreed to the request.
