They will be attracted by developing 6 historical tourist places in the district. Aurangabad has a very old international registered airport, but immigration service is not available here. I have made efforts for this. Immigration service will start here in a couple of months.

Danve praised the work of Modi government
In his opinion, the Union Minister of State for Railways, Raosaheb Danve, counted the works being done by the Modi government at the Center and tied the pool of praise. He told that for the last many years, the Marathwada people have been demanding a double rail line from Manmad to Nanded. This demand was ignored by the then Central Governments. As soon as I got the post of Minister of State for Railways in the Modi government, I have intensified efforts to lay a double line from Manmad to Nanded. He said that the development works which have not been done for years, those works are being done in the last 8 years during the tenure of Modi government across the country including Marathwada. Danve said that earlier only 1100 crore rupees were kept in the budget by the central government for rail development in the state, since the Modi government came to power, it has increased 10 times and 11 thousand crore rupees are being spent on the railway department of the state. Huh. For years, the people’s representatives of the area were demanding to have a railway line electrician from Nanded to Manmad. That demand is now being fulfilled. The credit for which goes to the Modi government.
