ONGOLE: The Agricultural Marketing department is making plans to earn revenue by setting up oil filling stations on the premises of the Agricultural Market Yards across the state. As many as 138 petrol filling stations are planned in the market yards across the State.
The officials are going to take over the maintenance of these proposed filling stations on their own just like the Prisons department, which is running a few filling stations near the prisons of the state to get income. The first such petrol filling station is likely to come up in Prakasam district with the officials identifying at least 13 market yards for setting up filling stations.
