Agree
Ideally more trains should be released towards Palakkad via Palani, like from Rameswaram, Puducherry, Bangalore and many more cause Palani has become a hotspot for many pilgrims and for general public.... better to start more services to Palani rather than being dependent on the buses and more than that travelling by private transports.....

In that case, they should start the service from Mysuru or Bengaluru and terminate to Palakkad via Palani, with the same kind of route from Jolarpettai to Palakkad from the MAS PGT SF Express..... it would be ideal to have one either from these places.... only if someone could write to the Railways Minister or any Minister of state handling the Railways dept for demand of new train to Palani from either Mysuru or Bengaluru...🙏🙏🙏

You could also add that there is an elephant path adjacent to the steps, which can be used by pilgrims to climb the hill as climbing the steps would be little bit difficult.
