Summary:

KOLKATA: The Airport-New Garia Metro corridor has hit a fresh hurdle. RVNL is now waiting for KMDA to demolish the traffic guard and make way for pier 317. “The owners are aware that their buildings will be demolished, but some of them have appealed for higher compensation. Occupants of the eighth building have moved court because it was already there when the Metro alignment was notified in 2011. But the railways won’t have to provide land elsewhere to the owners.Officials said the compensation amount for the 24 claimants living in these buildings is currently pending with the Metro Railway’s Competent and Appellate Authority that awards land compensation..
