Vizag people tell us what they want for the city in 2018

With American investment giant Franklin Templeton confirming to open up its campus in Visakhapatnam, 2018 seems to have started on a positive note for the city. However, a lot lies ahead to be accomplished which could help a great deal in establishing Visakhapatnam’s supremacy in the state. We interacted with a few people from the city and asked them what they wish for Vizag in 2018. Here’s what they had to say.

“I wish Vizag gets established as a major tourist destination this year. The events last year gave the city a major push and hope the government and authorities plan many more similar projects this year to make the city more vibrant.”

-Sivaji, Engineering Graduate

“Kudos to the GVMC authorities and the citizens for making Visakhapatnam achieve the 3rd spot in 2017’s Swachh Survekshan. I really wish that we all work together and put in concerted efforts in helping Vizag emerge as India’s cleanest city in 2018.”

-Sahithi, Software Engineer

“I was really happy in 2014 when the government had announced a special railway zone for Andhra Pradesh with Visakhapatnam as its headquarters. However, much to the disappointment of many, nothing major has materialised so far. I urge the government authorities to keep up their promise and take major strides towards Visakhapatnam Railway Zone this year.”

-Sai Vinayak, Businessman

“While it is good that many firms are expressing interest in setting up their industries in Visakhapatnam, I really wish the tranquility and ecosystem of the city aren’t affected in any way by these.”

-Swarna, Housewife
