During the recent centenary celebration function of Pamban Bridge,Dr. Abdul kalam ,our Ex-President requested for a train in the name of Pamban Express to be operated from Rameswaram.But in the list of new trains announced in the recently submitted interim Railway Budget, Railway Minister was not even given any importance to the request made by DR.Abdul Kalam as no train is orginating from Rameswaram in his presented list as if Railway Board is not willing to memomarate the century old Pamban Bridge and also it is not belonging to Indian Railways solely with the view of step mother treatment to South.
In RM's list of new trains, no new train is given to start from Rameswaram. Already running trains from Rameswaram are having their own names.It was suggested by him for a new train only in the name of Pamban Express.So eligibility is not coming in the picture
