Title - Cong MP Hooda hopes for Jaipur-Chandigarh rail link

Congress MP Deepender Singh Hooda on Tuesday hoped that Union Railway Ministry would approve a new daily inter-city train between Jaipur and Chandigarh through Rewari, Jhajjar, Rohtak and Jind.
Hooda was at Kosli on Tuesday to pay his last respects to the deceased CRPF personnel Pradeep Yadav and Rohtash Singh. The two CRPF personnel had sacrificed their lives, while fighting the Naxals in Latehar area of Jharkhand.

He said that this part of the State does not have any rail link to the State capital Chandigarh and Jaipur.

The train will connect important and promising business centers like Jind, Rohtak, Jhajjar and Rewari to capital cities like Jaipur and Chandigarh.

It would greatly boost the trade and also connect interior areas like Jind to other cities like Rohtak and Rewari. As it would be first rail connection between Jind and Rohtak, it would also help students in a big way, he added.

“I have already written to the Union Railways Minister Pawan Kumar Bansal to request for the same and met General Manager of Northern Railways, VK Gupta and I am quite hopeful that soon this train would start running on daily basis soon,” Deepinder Hooda said.
