Title: Need to start operation of Akashwani Kendra at Himatnagar, Sabarkantha district, Gujarat.
SHRIMATI JAYABEN B. THAKKAR (VADODARA): The issue of making the Akashvani Kendra at Himatnagar in Sabarkantha district of Gujarat operational is pending since long. The entire infrastructure including building and staff quarters has been constructed since last four years at an approximate cost of Rs. 15 crores. For some reasons, the radio station has not been made operational and except for relaying certain programmes from Ahmedabad, no other programmes are being broadcast.
I urge the Government to make it operational at the earliest.
