Grievance Description: This grievance is regarding the provision of several facilities in NEW AMRAVATI station on Badnera-New Amravati-Narkher line on CENTRAL RAILWAY. This line took nearly 20 years for its commencement. Recently, the importance of this line is proved in the occasions of major accidents or disruptions on Central or West Central Railway regions. However, this line is not being fully utilized to its capacity for several reasons such as (1) no electrification, (2) single line, (3) no new trains. Only 2 daily passenger trains and two weekly express trains pass through this line. This train is being mainly used fro goods traffic. The suggestions and requests are: (1) This route needs an urgent electrification. (2) A cord line between New Amravati and Amravati terminus is a necessity to operate emergency services and start passenger train from Amravati. As New Amravati is a out of town station, people do not favor using New Amravati.
