By locking three properties the Bengaluru Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) acquires the possession of a mass share of the property identified for the Kempegowda International Airport (KIA) metro line construction.

Demolition of all the structures is almost completed on the 38-km stretch between K R Puram and the trumpet interchange, according to a report published by the media.

Identification of 224 properties spread over 2.21 lakh square metres has been done by the BMRCL for the project.

The engineering section has hold of the majority of land required for the project. The properties which are yet to be demolished include Government Flying Training School, automobile shop at Hebbal, car showroom nearby Kodigehalli, and a building compound wall near the trumpet interchange.

Earlier, the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) gave possession of the land required for the metro line to KIA (between Hebbal to the trumpet interchange) to the BMRCL. The land was initially acquired by the NHAI for a project proposal.
