Mulky, Dec 25: A large gathering of people from Mulky and surrounding areas held a demonstration near the railway station here on December 24 at 10 am urging for the halt of two trains at Mulky railway station.

The recently commenced Karwar-Yashwantpur and Mumbai-Mangalore trains are not halting at Mulky railway station.

Estimates say that more than two lac people hailing from these places are living in Bangalore and Mumbai.

    Mulki Railway station has one of the best transport accessibilities, compared to so many other stations, including Mangalore junction. People as far as Moodbidri, karkala, kaup, surathkal distance, and villages within these region access Mulki station. Yet, Mulki station gets de-prioritized. Railways always expects a demonstration? Can't they get the data from population density in these regions?

    Had this 'pratibhatane' been announced earlier to larger scale, I am sure few more hundreds would have gathered to press for their demand.

    Kudos to whoever started this initiative. let us not give up.
