VISAKHAPATNAM, SEPT. 12. Several Congress leaders accorded a warm welcome to the Chief Minister, Y. S. Rajasekhara Reddy, when he made a transit halt here at the INS Dega airport on his way to Srikakulam on Sunday.

Dr. Reddy, after a brief chat with the Minister for Labour and Employment, G. Vinod, the City Congress Committee president, Dronamraju Srinivas Rao, and others, flew to Srikakulam to participate in the `Rajiv Palle Bata' programme.

The Pendurthy MLA, T. Gurumurthy Reddy, the Magudula MLA, K. Mangapati Rao, the Visakha-II MLA, S. Ranga Raju, and others were present.

No file on V-C

To a question, Dr. Reddy said he had not received the file relating to institution of a judicial probe into the alleged wrong-doings of the Andhra University Vice-Chancellor, Y. C. Simhadri.

Fielding questions on the issue during his transit halt at the INS Dega airport, Dr. Reddy said the Government would take a suitable decision soon.

Replying to a query on the Polavaram project, he said funding was not a problem as several institutions were volunteering to advance financial assistance. He said the work on the Polavaram Right Canal Project would begin in two months.
