R Upender Reddy assumed charge as the managing director of Hyderabad Growth Corridor Limited (HGCL) on Friday. He held a review meeting with senior officials to discuss ongoing projects and key issues concerning the organisation's functioning. Reddy directed officials to ensure effective implementation and timely completion of projects entrusted to HGCL. He also visited various project sites to inspect ongoing works, stressing quality, timely execution and coordination among agencies for speedy progress of infrastructure works.

## Indian Opinion Analysis

HGCL is the nodal agency developing the Hyderabad Growth Corridor, a 160-km outer ring road project aimed at decongesting the city and driving satellite township growth. The new MD inherits a pipeline of several thousand crore rupees in road, water and utility works, many delayed by land acquisition and contractor issues. Reddy's immediate focus will be clearing stalled packages and meeting fiscal-year targets. The next quarterly progress review by the state infrastructure department will be a key marker.
