Will make Dugarajapatnam port project a reality: Chinta

The Congress candidate for Tirupati by-election holds a roadshow in Gudur

The Congress party will ensure that the Dugarajapatnam port, promised to the State in Parliament, becomes a reality, said Congress Working Committee member Chinta Mohan. Holding a roadshow in Gudur on Monday, Dr. Chinta Mohan said the promised public sector port remained a non-starter as the ruling BJP at the Centre and the ruling YSR Congress Party in the State remained indifferent to the cause to favour a private port player. The opposition Telugu Desam Party also did a disservice to the State’s cause when it was in power, alleged the former Union Minister. The Congress party candidate for the Tirupati Lok Sabha byelection asserted that he would leave no stone unturned to anchor the major port as it was imperative for the development of the backward region.
