PM Modi’s visit to Visakhapatnam has given a chance to rivals to launch protests over railway zone. The cancellation of decades-old Waltair railway division has drawn criticism from the TDP leaders. Modi Go Back posters and banners came up in Visakhapatnam and other places. The Vizag railway zone promise was not fulfilled properly and there’s much loss to the AP State because of this unjustified action by the Modi government at the Centre.

Modi will arrive to address a public meeting at Railway Maidan grounds in Vizag on Friday evening. As expected, the BJP leaders tried to make lot of political buzz on railway zone promise fulfillment. But the TDP didn’t give them any chance. CM Chandrababu Naidu in no time exposed injustice done to AP state. The Centre has given railway zone but it has nullified the prestigious Waltair division. Moreover, the cargo revenue of over Rs 7500 crore would now go to Odisha.
The BJP North Coastal Andhra leaders are now a worried lot. Their efforts to get political advantage out of railway zone just backfired because of unjust action of the Centre.
