The Central Railways has set in motion a proposal to open the second entrance to the Railway Station here from Tarfail locality by opening a new general ticket issuing counter, which will later be upgraded to full-fledged reservation counter, once the fourth platform gets inaugurated. The Central Railways sources told The Hindu here on Friday that initially, only general tickets would be issued at the new counter, as it had been set up in a old building. Earlier, Union Railway Minister M. Mallikarjun Kharge had directed the Central Railways to construct the fourth platform, provide a new entrance from Tarfail locality and a booking counter at the new entrance of the railway station. The Central Railways had initiated steps to construct the fourth platform by laying the railway lines and the construction of the second entrance would begin shortly.
