Frequency should be increased to daily from tri-weekly: Pratap Simha
Mysuru-Kodagu MP Prathap Simha on Thursday urged the Railway Minister to make Bengaluru-Mangaluru Central tri-weekly express a daily service and extend the same to Karwar.
In letter to Minister Ashwini Vaishnav, Mr. Simha said the rail connectivity between Mysuru and Mangaluru was inadequate compared before commissioning of the Hassan-Bengaluru new railway line via Kunigal. Before diverting the Bengaluru-Karwar/Kannur overnight express via Mysuru on the new line, Mysuru had direct connectivity to Mangaluru, Kannur and Karwar on daily basis, he noted.
