New Delhi: Himachal Pradesh Public Works Minister Vikramaditya Singh met Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Indian Railway Board Satish Kumar in New Delhi today. He apprised the Chief Executive Officer about the delay in the construction of the flyover at Himachal Pradesh Vidhansabha Junction and bridge along with Victory Tunnel due to delay in getting approval from Northern Railway.
He urged the Chief Executive Officer to give early approval in this regard. He said that these are the main roads of the city and play an important role in maintaining smooth traffic in Shimla. In view of the increasing influx of tourists, it is very important to work in this direction.

On the request of the Public Works Minister, Satish Kumar directed the concerned officials to start the work immediately and resolve the related obstacles.

Vikramaditya Singh thanked the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer for directing him to start the work that was pending since April. He said that the construction work being carried out by the Public Works Department under the Smart City project was being hampered due to lack of timely approval.
