Railway Minister positive for Rotegaon-Kopargaon new railway line. No transfer of NED Division from "SCR" to "CR". Assures new train from AWB to NDLS.

President of Marathwada Railway Vikas Samiti, Mr. O.P. Varma, met RM Mr. Suresh Prabhu and handed him a letter of demands written in his own blood. In a detailed discussion, the RM assured him about the Rotegaon-Kopargaon new railway line after learning that it will reduce the distance to Shirdi by 70 km from South India.

He also assured a new train between Aurangabad and Delhi. However, in a surprising statement, the RM told Mr. Varma, "I will give whatever facilities required (to Marathwada) but do not demand the transfer of Nanded division to CR."

Mr. Varma also put forward the following demands:

1. Doubling and electrification of the MMR-MUE single track.
2. Railway University at Aurangabad.
3. Completion of the Daulatabad (Aurangabad)-Chalisgaon new railway line.

रेल मंत्री ने रोतेगाँव-कोपरगाँव नई रेल लाइन के लिए हामी भरी। NED डिवीज़न का "SCR" से "CR" में तबादला नहीं। AWB से NDLS के लिए नई ट्रेन का भरोसा दिलाया।

मराठवाडा रेल विकास समिति के अध्यक्ष श्री ओ.पी. वर्मा ने रेल मंत्री श्री सुरेश प्रभु से मुलाक़ात की और उन्हें खून से लिखा मांग पत्र सौंपा। विस्तृत चर्चा में रेल मंत्री ने रोतेगाँव-कोपरगाँव नई रेल लाइन का भरोसा दिलाया, यह जानकर कि इससे दक्षिण भारत से शिरडी की दूरी ७० किमी कम होगी।

उन्होंने औरंगाबाद और दिल्ली के बीच नई ट्रेन का भी भरोसा दिया। हालाँकि, एक (आश्चर्यजनक) बयान में रेल मंत्री ने श्री वर्मा से कहा, "मैं मराठवाड़ा को ज़रूरी सभी सुविधाएँ दूँगा, लेकिन नंदेड डिवीज़न का CR में तबादला माँगना नहीं चाहिए।"

श्री वर्मा ने ये माँगे भी रखीं:

१. MMR-MUE सिंगल ट्रैक का डबलिंग और विद्युतीकरण।
२. औरंगाबाद में रेलवे विश्वविद्यालय।
३. दौलताबाद (औरंगाबाद)-चालीसगाँव नई रेल लाइन का पूरा होना।

Sectional speed on the Aurangabad-Manmad section to increase up to 100-120 kmph. New facilities at Aurangabad Station.

SCR officials today told the media that the upgradation and strengthening work between Aurangabad-Manmad is in progress. Since the number of trains running on this section has increased recently, and more trains are proposed to run on this section, the supporting railway track must be strong enough to support high-speed trains. 45 km of the 113 km track is already upgraded. The rest of the work is going in full swing. This will increase the current sectional speed in this section from 75-80 kmph to 100-120 kmph. The travel time between MMR and AWB will reduce to 1-1.15 hrs from the current 2 hrs. Goods trains will also be allowed to run at 60-65 kmph.

SCR has also undertaken the following work:
1. Goods line at Tarur
2. 3 extra lines at Potul
3. RGM line at Nagarsol

SCR is also going to start station facilities upgradation work at AWB. AWB has received Rs. 10 crore in aid from the state tourism department. The following facilities will be added at Aurangabad:
1. Children's amusement park
2. Escalators
3. New VIP lobby and AC dormitory
4. Other public facilities
