VISAKHAPATNAM: An appropriate decision on the proposed development of the Visakhapatnam-Bhogapuram beach corridor will be made after a detailed project report (DPR) is submitted, Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari told the Rajya Sabha on Wednesday.
The minister was replying to a query by BJP MP GVL Narasimha Rao, whether the Andhra Pradesh government had proposed development of the beach corridor to the ministry.
