No bus link for Palayamkottai station, travel turns trouble for rail passengers in TN
TIRUNELVELI: Despite handling a steady flow of passengers every day for decades now, the Palayamkottai Railway Station continues to function without even bus connectivity to major points within Tirunelveli city.
As a result, rail passengers from Thoothukudi, Srivaikundam, Kurumbur, Nazareth, and Tiruchendur are forced to depend entirely on autorickshaws that often charge fares several times higher than the train fares.
Known traditionally as the Oxford of South India, Palayamkottai hosts several colleges and government offices, making the railway station a critical access point.
