The Delhi Government is “sitting” on the Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS) file on corridor between Delhi and Meerut that aims to de-congest the national Capital, the Centre told the Supreme Court Thursday.

The apex court should give a direction to the Delhi Government on this issue, the Centre told a bench of Justices Madan B Lokur, S Abdul Nazeer and Deepak Gupta.

“The Government of India and Uttar Pradesh are committed on their shares. We are yet to get it from the Delhi government. We want a direction from this court for Delhi government as they are sitting on it,” said Additional Solicitor General (ASG) ANS Nadkarni, appearing for the Centre.
