KTR Turns ‘Road Engineer’

Now, Telangana Municipal Administration and Urban Development Minister KT Ramarao is playing the role of a ‘road engineer’ to improve road conditions in the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation limits.

The minister is undertaking regular visits to several colonies and inspecting road conditions and sanitation. Unfortunately, all the road KTR visited were in bad condition, which invited the young minister’s anger and he had to take decisions on his own to set the things right.

Bidding adieu to the decades old practice of road maintenance by the corporation, KTR has finally decided to hand over the road maintenance to private agencies. Officials said KTR is serious about the roads quality in the city. The minister is holding a series of meetings to improve road quality by adopting new techniques.

KTR even surprised the GHMC officials by explaining the technical standards required to lay quality roads which are resistant to heavy rains.
