Restoration of Ranchi-Jainagar train through alternative route is likely to be given a chance as efforts are being made towards it. Some moves have been taken in positive direction at the highest level in this regard when BJP national General Secretary Ram Madhav assured Jharkhand Mithila Manch delegation of meeting with Union Minister of Railways Suresh Prabhu to request the latter restore one of the most crucial trains connecting capital city of Jharkhand to Mithilanchal through alternative routes.
later Manch delegation also met with Union Minister of State for Civil Aviation and Hazaribagh MP Jayant Sinha and handed over him a memorandum for helping in restoration of Ranchi-Jainagar train.
Sinha assured to the delegation of meeting with Prabhu on Monday and requesting him of working on possible restoration of the train. He also assured the delegation of providing all possible help to get this important train restored through diverted routes.
Jharkhand Mithila Manch general secretary Santosh Jha said on Sunday that the Manch was meeting with all local public representatives under a movement which has been started to get Ranchi-Jainagar train restored.“This is the first phase of our movement which is expected to garner positive result. If it doesn’t happen, the movement is destined to intensify with agitation on resident of local public representatives,” said Jha. He added that the movement will continue until the train is restored.
Dhanbad MP PN Singh, too, has taken initiatives in this regard after Manch representatives met with him. Singh said that Dhanbad remained worst affected with closure of Ranchi-Jainagar Train, and he would extend all possible help in getting the train operated through alternative routes.
