The Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Ltd (BMRCL) on Monday told Karnataka High Court the Metro Rail works on CMH Road was going on as per the original alignment and the corporation has any violated any law in executing the same.

The corporation made this submission while a writ petition objecting to Metro Rail work on CMH Road was heard in the court. The counsel representing the corporation said when the public were asked to file objections to the alignment, none reacted. Opposing the alignment when the work has been started is not right, he argued. CMH Road shoppers filed the writ petition demanding that the alignment be shifted towards Old Madras Road and that would save close to Rs 1,000 crore for the State government.
