KTR to inaugurate development works worth Rs 50 crore in LB Nagar on Dec 6

The works include Mukti Ghat in Fathullaguda in LB Nagar constituency, a pet animal crematorium in Fathullaguda, a link road at Fathullaguda.

Hyderabad: Municipal Administration and Urban Development Minister KT Rama Rao on Tuesday will inaugurate developmental works worth around Rs 50 crore in Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) LB Nagar zone.

These works include Mukti Ghat, and an animal crematorium in Fathullaguda, a link road from Central Ground Water Board (Bandlaguda) to Peerzadiguda road, a Strategic Nala Development Programme (SNDP) work at Bandlaguda, and a swimming pool at Vanasthalipuram.

The animal crematorium has been built to provide dignified and respectful last rites to the pet animals in a scientific manner as per Pollution Control Board (PCB) norms with zero emission. For establishing the animal crematorium, the GHMC granted permission to the animal welfare organisation People for Animals (PFA) which will collect nominal usage charges for the service offered. The corporation has spent Rs 33.50 lakh for the pet cemetery and the PFA contributed equipment worth Rs 51.25 lakh, the GHMC stated in a press release.

As part of the SNDP work at Bandlaguda, a box drain has been built from Bandlaguda lake to Nagole which will offer relief to scores of families living in and around the lake. The families here, especially those with houses located in low-lying areas, suffered during every monsoon and intense spells of rain, as water used to gush into their houses.

Another project is the 4.47 km link road from the Central Ground Water Board to Peerzadiguda road which will reduce the distance from Nagole road to Peerzadiguda road from 9 km to 4 km and commute time from 21 minutes to 10 minutes. This link connects Boduppal, Peerzadiguda, Uppal, and Warangal National Highway from Nagole and Auto Nagar. In addition to becoming the shortest route to Peerzadiguda from Nagole road, this link road is expected to increase development at Fathullaguda and Uppal Hills Colony.
