Rejecting allegations of irregularities, L&T Hyderabad Metro Rail Limited today said it was ready for a probe but would not bow down to any "threats" and would complete the project by December next year as scheduled.
The development comes a day after the Andhra Pradesh government demanded an unconditional apology from DMRC Managing Director E Sreedharan for his remarks on the HMRL project in his letter to Planning Commission Deputy Chairman Montek Singh Ahluwalia.
The metro rail commenced its operations between Miyapur and Nagole, having a total distance of 30 kilometre and 24 stations.
