Lok Sabha MP Sajda Ahmed’s Zero Hour mention on improving train services on the Howrah-Kharagpur and Howrah-Amta routes under Southeastern Railway, which pass through her parliamentary constituency
Hon. Chairperson, Madam, I thank you for giving me the chance. I wish to draw the attention of the Government to the persistent delay and irregular train services on the Howrah-Kharagpur line and Howrah-Amta route under South Eastern Railway which passes through my parliamentary constituency covering Bauria, Kuleshwar, Uluberia, Kulgatia and Bardhaman. Thousands of daily passengers including Government employees, students and workers are facing immense suffering due to this. Despite bringing this matter to the attention of the hon. Railway Minister through written communication, there has been no significant improvement in the situation. The continuous delays are affecting livelihoods and productivity causing distress to the people who rely on these trains daily. I urge the Government to take immediate corrective measures including strict monitoring, improved scheduling and better infrastructure management to ensure timely and regular train services for the commuters of this region.
