Bharatiya Janata Party leader Suresh C. Angadi, MP (Belagavi), has urged Railway Minister Suresh Prabhu to set up district-level committees headed by Members of Parliament to monitor maintenance works in all railway stations.

He said here on Friday that setting up of such committees would go a long way in maintaining cleanliness on the premises of railway stations and in redressing grievances of commuters effectively.

He added that excepting a few, most railway stations in the country were in an unhygienic condition.

Setting up of committees would also ensure a regular check on maintenance works and make officials accountable for their dos and don’ts, he added.
