Vizianagaram Collector A. Suryakumari on Wednesday directed Housing Department officials to speed up work on Jagananna Housing Colonies being constructed at various places including in Gunkalam and Kondakarakam villages, and on the outskirts of Vizianagaram.
The Collector chaired a review meet on the progress of the works along with Vizianagaram MLA Kolagatla Veerabhadra Swamy and Municipal Commissioner R. Sriramula Naidu. She asked officials to set up their camp offices at Gunkalam, Kondakaram and other places to ensure steady supply of cement, steel and other materials to the beneficiaries.

Ms. Suryakumari said that the works should be finished within the deadlines fixed by the government. Mr. Veerabhadra Swamy asked officials to construct an approach road to the colonies soon.
