To include Mumbai Central Mangalore service in the Railway Baudget –Gopal Shetty

Mumbai, Feb 16: Because of corrupt-free, bias-free ruling of the Government since two years, our country was not affected by the recession as compared to the rest of the world. But it is necessary to increase the ticket fairs of the Railway to provide basic facilities and upgrade the service. As per your appeal Mumbai Central Mangalore Konkan Railway service will be included in the coming Railway Budget-said Gopal C Shetty, MP North Mumbai Loksabha Constituency.

He was speaking in the 6th Public awareness meet of Railway Yatri Sangha organized by Railway Yatri Sangha Mumbai West Zone in association with MeeraBhayandar Tulu Kannada Sangha at Hotel Payyade Residency, Mira Road (E) last Sunday.

He said that private funds are also needed for the development of the Railway. Many positive developments have been taken place due to the continuous efforts of Railway Yatri Sangha. All the seven states benefitted by the Konkan Railway should come together and fight for the various needs. He also assured that he will bring pressure on the government in the coming Railway Budget to start the service through Mumbai Central, Dadar, Borivili, Vasai, Panvel and Mangalore.

The meeting was held under the leadership of Virar Shankar Shetty-honorary president of Railway Sangha. Shimantur Uday Shetty-the president, Premnatha P Kotian-vice president, Rajith Suvarna-joint secretary, Padmanabha S Payyade-the president of Bunt’s legal association, Suresh Shetty-the President of MeeraBhayander Tulu Kannada Sangha, UdayHegdeEliyalu-the President of Mira Bhayander Karnataka Sangha, Chandrashekar Shetty-the president of Karnataka Mahamandal and they felicitated Gopal Shetty.

Virar Shetty inaugurated the meeting by lighting the lamp and said, “The travelers of western suburb are experiencing many troubles and to settle these problems Railway Yatri Sangha was established. Uday Shetty Shimantur-the president of the association has solved many problems fighting in the court. The vacation train that was launched last year is a result of this fight. Give an appeal to the MP to continue this service”

Shimanturu Uday Shetty said, “Railway is a cheap means of transport to the middle class. I have solved many problems of the Railway through the court. We should be able to see MP Gopal Shetty in the place of Konkan Railway pioneer George Fernandes. The special train service during Ganapati festival, Christmas, Deepavali is a great help to the western suburb. We should behave like a disciplined citizen while travelling. Then only the Railway Authority may grant our requests.”

Padmanabha Payyade explained the present situation of the Railway and suggested to improve the basic fecilities in the trains.

Mundappa Payyade praised the work of Virar Shankar Shetty, ShimaturUday Shetty and others for their efforts in improving the Railway service in the suburb.
