​Hyderabad: Hyderabad Metro Rail Managing Director N V S Reddy on Friday exhorted the management students to set high goals and standards for themselves and urged them to be innovative rather than simply following the beaten track.
The HMR MD was delivering a ‘Leadership Series’ lecture on ‘Opportunities and Challenges’ at the Institute of Management Technology (IMT), Hyderabad campus. Explaining to them about the challenges of leadership during crisis periods and the need for perseverance and courage of conviction, he said that it was important that one should learn to face failure, if one wanted to make the impossible possible.
Giving example of the ‘bold’ PPP experiment of Hyderabad Metro which was originally dismissed by many as a pipe dream, he explained as to how the project was made a reality, forcing even the experts to acknowledge its merits.
The HMR MD explained to the students many engineering and financial innovations and technological excellence, the project was nearing completion and once completed, it would stand as a testimony to the engineering talent and management skills of India.
He stated that two sections i.e., Miyapur to SR Nagar (11 km) of corridor I and Nagole-Begumpet(16 km) of corridor III would be opened during middle of 2017 and the entire stretch of these two corridors (56 km) would be opened for traffic this year itself.
He demonstrated to them the technological excellence of Hyderabad Metro project which involved sophisticated signalling and train control system, remote operation of trains from the computerised operating control centre (OCC), commuter friendly amenities and security features.
Explaining to them as to how the project was different from the other Metros, he explained that Hyderabad Metro was not just a simple transportation project but it is an opportunity to redesign Hyderabad as an eco-friendly and people-friendly city with special facilities for women, children, senior citizens and differently abled people.
