Railways to Fully Fund Pithapuram ROB
The Railways will pay for a new bridge called a Railway Over Bridge (ROB) in Pithapuram.
This is because Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan asked for it.
Officials have already checked the place where the bridge will be built and are now calculating how much it will cost.
Once they have the cost, they will send it to the Railway Board for approval.
This bridge will help make the traffic in Pithapuram move more smoothly and safely.
