Beautification of the beach should be given priority. None of the cities have such a wonderful beach well within walkable distance. Tree saplings may be planted along the newly constructed road. Coconut trees will add to the beauty I think. Shejwad road at least up to Railway station should immediately widened as lot accident do happen. MLA is efficient enough to carryout development of the area. Kudos to her.
