Now with Report getting ready for Commuter Rail by RITES,  MoS for Railway Muniyyappa should get the project sanctioned in this Railway Budget. 

 

Hats off to Tumkur MP Shri Basavaraj!

I must commend the efforts By Tumkur MP Shri. G Basavaraj for keeping th CRS hope alive. May the tribe of MPs grow and flourish. How may of our MPs even remember the demand for CRS?

In past weeks,  Deccan Herald reported that nothing has been done on CRS front including DPR. I haven't seen any rejoinder/clarification from either DULT or SWR.

Will wait for the DPR report news.

While plans for Bengaluru Commuter Rail service is still a long way to go before it becomes a reality, MMTS Hyderabad is going stronger by getting more infrastructure.

.....The Cabinet Committee on Infrastructure approved the upgradation of railway infrastructure for introduction of Phase II of� Multi-Modal Transport System (MMTS) in the twin cities.

The total expenditure for execution of the phase-II works is Rs 632.68 crore.Two-thirds of this -- Rs 421.79 crore will be borne by the state and the remaining will be funded from the gross budgetary support of Indian Railways....
