Shakuntala Express train service suspended ?
YAVATMAL-MURTIJAPUR narrow-guage train Shakuntala Express is presently not serving the commuters. Reason heavy rains!! But not many agree with this. The suspended service of the train is affecting the travelers.
It is learnt the railway line is safe and Shakuntala can comfortably run on tracks. Bui intentionally the train service is stopped, it is learnt.
Last the railway line was completely damaged due to heavy rains. The repairing work was done in a week. But surprisingly, Shakuntala did not run on track. Bhavana Gawali. MP. Sanjay Rathod. MLA, and other activists thronged the railway station and locked it.
The Sena men also warned to launch agiation if the train fails to run on tracks again.
Bowing to the pressure, the train was started but every' alernatc day.
It was cold that the train will run on regular basis after the technical snag is sorted out. Since then the (rain schedule was never regular. And it abruptly out of services. The narrow guage route of Yavataml-Murtijapur is 118 Kms.
The bus fare is Rs 140 while Shakuniala charges only Rs 22 and taken at least one-and-half-hour less to reach the destination. The railway station lacks basic amenities. Despite of that. Darwha. Karanja people doesn't want the train services to be suspended.
