Bandra - Madgaon Express: कोकणासाठी रेल्वे मागतोय तुम्ही गोव्यासाठी देताय? वांद्रे-मडगाव एक्सप्रेसबाबत कोकणवासीय नाराज

A new train service, Bandra Terminus - Madgaon Express, has been launched, connecting Mumbai to Goa. However, the Konkan Railway Passengers Association (KRPA) has expressed dissatisfaction with the train's stops and schedule, claiming it does not benefit the people of Konkan. They argue that a passenger or slow train, like the...

Vasai-Sawantwadi Passenger or the Madhu Dandavate Express, was needed instead. The KRPA criticizes the limited stops in Konkan, with only seven stations receiving service, and the lack of stops at 34 stations in Ratnagiri and Sindhudurg districts. They have demanded a reserved general compartment at Vasai Road station and at least one stop per taluka, emphasizing that a slow train from Divya to Sawantwadi is possible, so a similar service between Bandra and Sawantwadi should be feasible. The KRPA also highlights Maharashtra's significant investment in the Konkan Railway, demanding the train to be a passenger or slow express.

Mumbai se Goa jaane wali ek nayi train shuru ki gayi hai, Bandra Terminus se Madgaon Express. Lekin, Konkan Railway Passengers Association (KRPA) ne is train ke stops aur schedule se narazgi dikhaayi hai. Unka kehna hai ki yeh train Konkan ke logon ko fayda nahin de rahi hai. KRPA ne...

yeh bhi kaha ki unhe ek passenger ya slow train chahiye thi, jaise Vasai-Sawantwadi Passenger ya Madhu Dandavate Express. KRPA ne is baat par narazgi dikhaayi hai ki Konkan mein sirf 7 stations par stops diye gaye hai, aur Ratnagiri aur Sindhudurg district ke 34 stations par koi stops nahin hai. Unhone Vasai Road station par ek reserved general compartment aur har taluka mein kam se kam ek stop dene ki maang ki hai. KRPA ne yeh bhi kaha ki Divya se Sawantwadi tak slow train chal sakti hai, toh Bandra se Sawantwadi tak passenger train kyon nahin chal sakti? KRPA ne yeh bhi kaha ki Maharashtra ne Konkan Railway mein bahut investment kiya hai, toh yeh train passenger ya slow express honi chahiye.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
