The Consumer Protection Council, Tamil Nadu, has reiterated the demand for introduction of an additional train to Bengaluru from Tiruchi.
“The only train available now was introduced in 1963. The rapid increase in population, the economic growth, spurring travel, and Bengaluru becoming an IT hub have necessitated additional trains,” said a resolution adopted at the annual general body meeting of the council held here recently.
Sometime ago, the railways had operated a day time special train between Yeshwantpur and Tiruchi but unfortunately it was discontinued, it said.
