the answer lies in speeding up the sanctioned[under PPP] belgaum dharwad alternative route-which parallels NH 4-then the distance between these two places gets reduced to less than 80 kms-which can be done in 90 mins-but no one seems to be interested in these-it amazes me how railways meekly lay up new branch lines under political pressure but forget such important and strategic moves-which will form alternate trunk routes-this one being the mumbai-pune-b'lore stretch
Belgaum Dharwar line and Davangere Tumkur line would revolutionize Delhi Bangalore railway travel as well as Mumbai Bangalore travel. Karnataka government must aggressively go for these two routes which will transform the economy of Karnataka.

i dont have any thing against solapur guntakal strech-that doesn't mean that the other route shold not be developed;and the new belgaum- dharwad and davangere- tumkur lines pass through flat terrain-if done, this will decongest the solapur guntakal line which you have been so steadfastly supporting;being metre guage in earlier days there were no direct trains here and all trains by default were routed through solapur guntakal-i dont see why new trains not run through this strech which is fast developing economically after gauge conversion;some stretches are being doubled too-eg tumkur-b'lore, birur -chickjajur;
