BJP’s newly elected Ranchi MP Sanjay Seth on Friday identified a
number of issues that he would raise before the parliament and other
platforms to mitigate people’s woes and ameliorate the condition of
Ranchi parliamentary constituency.
Speaking to media, Seth said
that he had identified a number of issues like construction of railway
over bridge (ROB) at various locations, traffic and water supply
problems, stoppage of important trains at particular station,
displacement issue, setting up of Forest Research Institute and
developing tourist spots that need to be addressed.
“After being
elected as Ranchi MP, I have been visiting the entire constituency since
a fortnight to interact with people to know their problems. I assured
them that their MP would raise the issues vehemently in Parliament and
other platforms,” Seth said.
ROBS AT CHUTIA AND NAGRI
Speaking
about his plans, Seth said that he would talk to railway ministry to
construct ROB at Chutia and Nagri in Ranchi city. “We have identified
that heavy traffic jams at these points create chaos at times.
Construction of ROBs at these two points is urgently needed,” he said.
Seth
also pointed out that people of small town like Muri didn’t have
privilege to travel in Garib Rath as the train doesn’t stop at Muri
railway station. “I will see if Muri becomes a stoppage for Garib Rath,
“Seth said.
RISING POLLUTION LEVEL IN KHALARI COAL BELT
The
Ranchi MP showed his concern over rising pollution level in Khalari
coal belt. “Coal India Limited (CIL) is engaged in coal mining
activities in this area. I have witnessed smoky atmosphere in Khalari
and there is no water sprinkling to settle the dust. Traffic jams due to
heavy vehicles transporting coal is another major issue. I will knock
the doors of state pollution control board and other agencies to solve
the problem, “Seth said.
FOREST RESEARCH INSTITUTE IN RANCHI
Seth
also advocated for setting up a Forest Research Institute in Ranchi and
up gradation of Ranchi University as a central university. “Jharkhand
is reach in forest reserve but we don’t have a forest research
institute. The migration of students from Ranchi for higher studies is
another cause of concern,” he said.
NITI AAYOG’S ASSISTANCE NEEDED FOR WHOLESOME DEVELOPMENT OF RANCHI
Seth
said that he would submit a report for the overall development of
Ranchi to the NITI Aayog within two months. “The report
titled–Antyodaya Se Sarvodaya Tak–would be prepared after consultation
with every section of the society. I hope that Aayog would take a
positive action in this regard,” he said.
SAMADHAN KENDRA IN ALL SIX ASSEMBLY CONSTITUENCIES
Disclosing
his plans on how to serve people better, Seth assured that he would
soon open one office (Samadhan Kendra) in each assembly constituency
under Ranchi Lok Sabha seat.
“It will be made functional on all
seven days of a week except on holidays of festive nature. I will ensure
to sit in these offices at least once in every ten days. People need
not to visit my place for their work,” Seth said.
