Mangalore, March 5: In the backdrop of few persons lobbying against the extension of Mangalore-Bangalore train to Karwar, Paschima Karavali Railway Yatri Abhivridhi Samiti has said that if the train is extended to Karwar, then railway connectivity will be provided from Karwar-Mangalore-Puttur-Subramanya.

Moreover, it will be convenient to the school and college students along with office-goers.

According to a press release from Samiti President Hanumantha Kamath, the train will connect Surathkal, Udupi, Kundapura, Bhatkal, Murdeshwara, Honnavara, Karwar and other important cities of coastal district. At the same time, it will also provide connectivity to Subramanya, Mysore, Bangalore to the people of the entire coastal district, the release said.

“If the night train is extended to Karwar, then the people of Puttur, Subramanya and Bantwal can visit Surathkal, Udupi, Kundapura and other places. Moreover, the people from the region can also visit Manipal for medical and business purpose in the morning and come back in the same train in the evening.”

“With the extension of Bangalore-Mangalore train to Kannur, the train is running empty, thus incurring loss to the railways. In fact, the railways had dropped the proposal on a train to Kannur few years ago, citing the reason that it is not profitable venture. However, later owing to the lobby from Kerala, the train was extended to Kannur. In fact, if the night train is extended to Karwar, then it will benefit the railways.”

He said the railways have brushed aside the indtroduction of addition train between Mangalore-Bangalore. In this background, even the proposal on the daily running of day train is a distant dream. Hence, the South Western Railways have to provide justice to Kerala and Karnataka by running few boogies to Kannur and few to Karwar.

January 21,2020

Bengaluru, Jan 21: A massive protest against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), National Register of Citizens (NRC), and National Population Register (NPR) was witnessed at Shivajinagar's Chandni Chowk area on Tuesday.

Scores of people came together carrying national flags and placards to register their protest in the city.

Speaking to ANI, a protester said, "People of all religious community have assembled here in Chandni Chowk to protest against CAA, NRC, and NPR. We the people of India are against this law."

Terming the law as anti-constitutional, he said that we support all the states who oppose the CAA. We demand the revocation of CAA and the government should remove conditions in NPR which lead to NRC.

CAA grants citizenship to Hindu, Sikh, Jain, Parsi, Buddhist and Christian communities fleeing religious persecution from Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh and who came to India on or before December 31, 2014.
