The Lieutenant Governor showed satisfaction over the fact that of the nine NOCs needed, seven had been obtained, and the remaining two, one of which concerns tree transplantation, were supposed to be in place at the earliest, the source told the media.

According to government sources, the Lieutenant Governor acknowledged all the stakeholders and agencies for the work done so far in terms of finalisation of the request for quote (RFQ) of the project, traffic simulation, getting NOCs, and parking planning for all buildings with seamless entry or exit from approach roads.
