Local train services beyond Virar must be improved. With this appeal, the Palghar MLA and MP independently met the Western Railway General Manager Ashok Kumar Misra within a span of one month and made a host of suggestions.
Last week, Palghar MP Rajendra Gavit met Misra along with representatives of passenger associations seeking more amenities on the section between Virar and Dahanu and asked that it be treated just like the Mumbai suburban section. “Upgrades like having a train management system, controls from Mumbai, centralized announcements, more CCTVs and escalators and all public amenities on a par with Mumbai suburban railway should be provided to this region since this has already been declared a part of the suburban railway,” Gavit said.
