Vasco rail under bridge in need of repairs


The railway line from Varunapuri and Mangor Hill road connects Vasco city and then from the railway bridge opposite Tanya hotel.

The railway authorities along with PWD and local MLAs should take up this issue on top priority before any untoward incident happens. 

A stitch in time saves nine so goes the adage and timely action will save lives.
