Rename Victoria Memorial Station to Asta lakshmi Temple Station

A VHP delegation has requested HMRL MD N.VS. Reddy to rename Victoria Memorial Station to Astalakshmi Temple Station. The metro station steps are directly located on the main road to the Astalakshmi Temple. Renaming the metro station to Astalakshmi Temple will directly inform devotees from all over the country about the metro rail service, which will also benefit the metro.

The VHP delegation has requested to change the name, which symbolizes the cruelty of British colonial rulers. The VHP delegation includes national spokesperson Dr. Ravinutala Shashidhar, state committee members H. Nageshwar Rao, Padmashri, Vivekananda Nagar district (Dilsukhnagar) president T. Purushotham Reddy, and secretary Pulimaddi Sudhakar.
