12988 - बारह नौ सौ अठासी , इसके नखरे हैं नवाबी ! - Keshav Saxena

Central Railway takes a bold decision to hand over Daund -Ankai section to Pune Division.Awaiting the final Railway Ministry order.The reason is step motherly treatment of Solapur Division towards this section (excluding Manmad) .Once this is done on paper, many new trains will start from Pune to Nagar on a daily basis.Also direct connectivity from Pune to Nagar will be established.A big Solapur lobby was hampering the progress of Daund Ankai section till now.On the other hand they were reaping huge benefits from Ahmednagar, Srirampur and Kopargaon and Yeola stations. My Father Mr.VB Pisharody who retired as SS Ahmednagar would have been so happy to see this day. Happy days for Daund -Ankai section.Cheers!!!
