However, he said that they have prepared a list of 60 areas so far where the public transport is not available, where major transport services are not available.


“It needs some kind of thought further to take care of the grievances of each and everyone. We will come up with a list in the next two days and we will encourage the local youth in these areas so that they can get employment avenues,” he said.
