Grievance Description : Dear Sir, This pertains to Western Railway Zone's Ratlam Division. Along with Gauge conversion (GC) work for RTM-FTD-INDM, the route between UJN-FTD was also closed. While the RTM-FTD section is already operational and work is in full swing for FTD-INDM, nothing is going on in UJN-FTD route. There is no decision / activity / news regarding GC of UJN-FTD section. Ujjain is the closest and most important city for FTD residents and this small 23 km route is a vital connectivity and provides a shorter route between Ujjain and Indore. Further, with Kumbh Festival 2016 Ujjain fast approaching, where millions of devotees visit Ujjain, importance of reopening of this route cannot be underestimated. Request you to kindly apprise us about the status of this route and whether it would be taken up for GC work? If yes, what timelines have been decided for this? Kind Regards, Dipanshu Rathore
