To meet the growing demand from passengers, Kalaburagi MP Umesh Jadhav has urged the Central Railway Division to announce a new train from Kalaburagi to Bengaluru.
Participating in a Divisional Committee meeting of Members of Parliament of Pune and Solapur divisions through video conferencing here on Tuesday, Mr. Jadhav urged the General Manager of Central Railway to start a new train from Kalaburagi to Bengaluru.
Expressing concern over the authorities concerned not utilising the pitline in Kalaburagi, he said that only one train, Kalaburagi to Hyderabad, is getting primary maintenance at the newly constructed pitline in Kalaburagi. Though the utilisation of this train was more than 73% before the pandemic, this train has not been re-started yet, while many other zones have re-started trains that have even less than 20% to 30% utilisation.
