Uttam Kumar Reddy inspects Miryalguda railway station

Miryalguda (Nalgonda): Nalgonda MP Uttam Kumar Reddy on Saturday visited the railway station in the town and also the flooded railway underpass of Thipparthi. During his interaction with railway officials, he pointed out the leaky roof of the station and non-functioning of bogie indicator lights.
