Hindustan Times  

PUNE: Shirur MP Amol Kolhe has urged the central government to relocate the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope near Narayangaon in Pune district to facilitate the proposed Pune-Nashik semi high-speed rail project. Shirur MP Amol Kolhe has urged the central government to relocate the GMRT near Narayangaon in Pune district to facilitate the proposed Pune-Nashik semi high-speed rail project. In a letter to the union minister of science and technology Dr Jitendra Singh, Kolhe highlighted that the GMRT’s presence has posed developmental challenges, including objections raised by scientists over the railway project. The Pune-Nashik railway line, a transformative project for the region, has also been stalled due to GMRT-related objections.” Proposing two solutions, Kolhe further wrote, “The GMRT authorities should find a technical resolution to ensure the railway project’s progress or consider relocating the GMRT to a sparsely populated area free from developmental pressures.” The Pune-Nashik semi high-speed rail project, spanning 232 kilometres, is expected to cut travel time between the two cities to one-and-a-half hour.
