The Hyderabad Metro Rail (HMR) development works clicked by senior citizens were put on display at the Muse Art Gallery in Marriott Hotel on Sunday.

Comprising 30 photos clicked by denizens older than 65 years, the photos showed various aspects of the project’s development.

Sudheer Kalli, the curator and founder of the gallery said that they received close to 150 entries, but have put only a few on display. “The rest will be shown at the metro rail museum being planned. The photos were selected after scrutiny by a team of experts,” Mr. Kalli said. Anand Raj Verma, one of the brand ambassadors for HMR among senior citizens, described the experience of documenting the works as a learning experience.

The exhibition was inaugurated by U. Rammohan, Superintendent of Police, Cyber Crimes, CID in the presence of Sanjay Kapoor, L&T Metro Rail’s General Manager, Advertising and PR. The exhibition is open for two weeks.
