    Yes they are right in demanding the train to be extended to Karwar. The state capital train need to be connected to the state cities first, as from Mulki, Udupi people depend on the bus only to reach Bangalore, Mysore. I am wondering what Veerappa Moily doing pretty sitting at the centre, and being very influential in the congress govt and can influence to alter any govt decisions as on date to favor Karnataka. He did not do anything good to Mangalore/Udupi when he was chief min of Karnataka.
