This train definitely deserves halt of this station for sure. Also Hubbali Banaras express too deserve halt here as this place is known for Janam-Stan of Sri Basaveshwar, an Hindu social reformer and founder of Lingayat Sampradaya of Saivism. It can connect Mumbai and Varanasi.Also Kudala Sangama(located on the southern bank of Krishna river, is an Holy site for Lingayats and Nirgunis)is well known for his Mukti-Stan of Sri Basaveshwar located 60kms from this station and 50kms from Bagalkot. Also North Karnataka and Solapur district of Maharashtra has more adherents of Lingayatism. Any Idea on this???
