The Nagpur District Collector had sent the proposal of funds for Ganesh Tekdi development to the Mantralaya in Mumbai for consideration. Within 15 days, the government released the fund of Rs 5 crore. The demand was raised during the previous Maha Vikas Aghadi Government. But the then government tried to suppress the demand.
Recently, social activist Bhushan Dalve wrote a letter to all BJP MLAs in Nagpur and urged them to raise the demand before the government. Keeping this appeal in mind, Krishna Khopde talked with Mangalprabhat Lodha, Minister of Tourism and discussed the demand.
