Visakhapatnam: On Friday, the North Andhra Development Forum urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to fulfill commitments made in the Associated Press National Restructuring Act while continuing construction of the Visakhapatnam steel plant in the public sector.
In a letter to the prime minister who planned to visit the city on November 11, FDNA recalled that he had visited the city earlier in 2016 and 2019. Instead, your government has decided to sell our prestigious Visakhapatnam Steel Works, where many Telugu victims were built, including 32 young lives. The AP State Reorganization Act of 2014 was not implemented in its true spirit, so even after the fork, this northern Andhra Pradesh region was pushed further behind,” it noted.
FDNA is calling on Modi to reverse his decision to sell the steel plant, allocate captive mines to it, and operate the plant at full capacity by filling all top job vacancies.
It also seeks to take steps to make the railway district headquartered in Visakhapatnam fully operational, maintain the integrity of the Visakhapatnam branch, complete the construction of the Petroleum and Tribal University, and allocate funds under the Act for security Part of the special development plan for the north of Deira.
The letter was signed by FDNA Secretary-General A. Aja Sarma and Vice-Chair Dr. A. Aja Sarma. P. Rama Rao, Treasurer BB Ganesh, Uttarandhra Rakshana Vedika SS Siva Sankar President and Uttarandhra Journalist Front Secretary N. Nageswara Rao.
