However, dressing works of Meisatla field  has been discontinued for quite a long time.

 SDSC leh SDFA leaders informed the Minister that the contractor, Great Sports Infra ltd, Hyderabad not only discontinued their dressing works but also failed to conform with the standard and specification laid down in the Design and Estimate of the project; in some portion of the  works  they had already completed so far. They ,therefore requested the Minister to intervene in this project and they opined that even though the project was not under his purview, he being a sports minister mandated that he took a necesssary measure at this crucial juncture.
Sports Minister  assured the leaders of Sports associations  that he would inform  and discuss with Deputy Chief Minister  and concerned officials about his visit and findings; and explore what could be done.
