Train stoppages in Udupi, Chikkamagaluru districts
The Railways has given approval for stoppages of many trains in Udupi and Chikkamagaluru districts, Union Minister of State for Agriculture and Farmers’ Welfare Shobha Karandlaje has said.
Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw, after receiving a memorandum, has ordered stoppage of trains in both districts, Shobha said.
During the Covid-19 pandemic, the stoppage for Thiruvananthapuram-Mumbai Express (Netravathi Express) at Kundapura in Udupi district was withdrawn.
As a result, passengers from Kundapura, travelling to Mumbai and Goa, faced a lot of inconveniences. Now, the railway ministry has restored the stoppage, she said.
