Union railway minister Piyush Goyal has assured local MLA Mangal Prabhat Lodha on Friday, that he will consider a proposal to rename Mumbai Central station after Indian Railway pioneer Jagannath Sunkershet (popularly called Nana), if it comes to him from the Maharashtra government.

Lodha told mid-day that he will get such a proposal in the next 10 days. "I have already spoken to Maharashtra transport minister Diwakar Raote, who has supported this initiative and shown keen interest. The proposal should come soon," Lodha said.
