Former Union Leader Calls for Speedy SCoR Headquarters in Visakhapatnam
Imagine a new train station is being built, but it's taking a long time to get started.
Someone who used to be in charge of a railway workers' group is asking the Chief Minister to help speed things up.
The new station, called SCoR, is supposed to be in Visakhapatnam.
The worker is worried because the construction hasn't begun even though the Prime Minister laid the first stone.
They want the Chief Minister to talk to the Railway Minister and get the project moving quickly.
They point out that even without a new building, there are empty buildings that can be used to start the work.
The person believes that the people in charge of building the station haven't been pushing hard enough, and they think the Chief Minister's help is needed.
Former union leader Ch. Gandhi urges the Chief Minister to push for the SCoR headquarters in Vizag.
Gandhi wants the CM to request Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw to expedite operations.
Construction hasn't started despite the foundation stone being laid by the Prime Minister.
Gandhi suggests using existing vacant railway buildings to begin operations.
He believes elected officials' lack of pressure has slowed the project.
