Kakinada Rural MLA performs bhoomi puja for BT Road Works worth Rs. 35 lakh

Kakinada, Oct 13 (UNI) Kakinada Rural MLA Pantham Nanaji on Tuesday performed Bhoomi Puja for the laying of bituminous (BT) roads in the 50th division at an estimated cost of Rs. 35 lakh under the Kakinada Municipal Corporation's general funds.
Addressing a gathering on the occasion, Nanaji said development and welfare programmes worth Rs. 1,150 crore had been initiated in his constituency over the past two years with the support of Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu.
He said development works worth Rs. 68 crore had been taken up in eight wards falling under the Kakinada Municipal Corporation limits.
The MLA alleged that YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) leaders were obstructing development works by approaching courts and urged them not to create hurdles to the construction of the Sarpavaram Cricket Stadium.
He called upon them to reconsider their opposition to development projects and said people would respond to such actions in the elections.
