Mafia | Efforts under way to introduce express train service on 06 September, 2013 - 05:56 AM | |
Efforts are under way to introduce express trains on the Salem-Karur broad gauge line, said Public Relations Officer (Salem Division) G.V. Venkatesan here. He was responding to report published in The Hindu on Monday based on queries raised by the Namakkal-based Makkal Sakthi Iyakkam.He said that the railways had provided basic amenities like drinking water, shelters, chairs, and toilets at the Namakkal Railway Station. If there was any lack in services, commuters could record their suggestions and grievances in a register available with the Station Master. Action would be taken on them immediately, he added. Referring to the extension of the functioning time of the railway ticket reservation counter at the station, he said that the time was decided based on the number of applications the counter processed.“Since the counter receives only 105 applications a day, the present timings are adequate to serve the needs of the passengers,” he added. |
