These resolutions would be adopted by the Assembly in respect of Delhi Metro Rail (Operation and Maintenance) Act, 2002 and Metro Railway (Construction of Works) Act, 1978 to enable the Parliament to legislate for extension of these Acts to Haryana so as to provide necessary legal cover during construction and operation of Delhi Metro in Haryana.
