He also addressed concerns regarding a connecting railway line for goods transport at the APMC Yard in Hubballi and employment opportunities for families who gave up their land for railway projects. Finally, he assured the MLA of addressing the timing concerns for the Vande Bharat Express between Hubballi-Dharwad and Bengaluru.
