The State government has sanctioned Rs 234 core as part of its equity obligation to the Kochi Metro.
Central and State governments have equal share in the project and the additional funding will come from financial agencies. Meanwhile, labour troubles continue to haunt the metro work which has only 1,000 days left for the scheduled completion.
A section of workers disrupted work at the Cheranelloor casting yard on Tuesday demanding that more number of workers from their union be hired.
The contracting company stopped work at one site following the disruption.
