As a Member of Parliament of Anakapalli, Ramesh stated that measures are being taken to provide facilities for passengers at Anakapalli railway station. The Union government’s aim is to make the stations free of any inconvenience, especially for women, disabled and children, the MP said . Along with the expansion of the station, the MP said necessary facilities, including the main entrance, the second entrance will be developed. He said that measures are being taken to make Anakapalli railway station number one in the state.
