New Delhi, April 26: Railway Minister Mukul Roy Thursday said he would take his Trinamool party chief Mamata Banerjee's Vision 2020 forward and deepen the agenda of inclusive growth.

"We will take the Vision 2020 forward," Roy said while replying to a debate on the demand for grants of the ministry 2012-13, which were passed by the Lok Sabha Thursday.

Roy replaced as railway minister his party's Dinesh Trivedi, who had to resign after his move to hike fares angered Mamata Banerjee.

Roy listed safety of the network, reduction in number of accidents and elimination of unmanned level crossings in a time-bound manner as priority areas. He also mentioned pursuing the public private partnership model for developmental projects.
