Metro rail says Govt Law College safe

Chennai:

Chennai Metro Rail on Monday said the 152-year-old Madras High court
structure housing the Government Law College is safe and it is being
jointly monitored by IIT Madras and Chennai Metro rail.

Chennai Metro rail’s chief general manager (Underground Construction)
V K Singh said that Metro rail has placed supports on the building and
it is safe.

To a query on report by the sub-committee of the Public works
Department and the Heritage committee of Madras High court, Singh said
that he has yet to get the report.

“They have not provided us with the report. But all the heritage
buildings are being monitored by experts from IIT Madras as well as
Chennai Metro Rail. The heritage structures are safe,” he said.

Director of projects R Ramanathan said that only after the report is
submitted to Chennai Metro Rail, a clearer picture will emerge.
