Exclusive: लापरवाही: फर्रूखाबाद रूट पर धार्मिक स्थल ब्रह्मवर्त को लेकर पूर्वोत्तर रेलवे नहीं दिखा रहा रुचि, मंधना-बिठूर नहीं बिक रहे टिकटThe railway line between Mandhana and Bithur on the Farrukhabad rail route is facing difficulties due to low ticket sales. The line was initially removed from railway maps after the conversion from narrow to broad gauge, leading to protests from Bithur residents. A rail bus was introduced but later discontinued due...

However, the number of trains operating through Bithur remains limited. A planned halt station between Mandhana and Bithur was also cancelled due to low revenue. The plan to connect Bithur to the Lucknow railway line via a bridge over the Ganga river is also in jeopardy, as the proposed route would have diverted trains from Farrukhabad to Mandhana via Bithur, bypassing Kanpur Central.
Farrukhabad rail route pe Mandhana aur Bithur ke beech ki line chalne mein mushkil aa rahi hai, kyuki ticket bahut kam bik rahe hain. Narrow gauge se broad gauge banne ke baad, railway ne apne map se Mandhana-Bithur line ko hata diya tha, jisse Bithur ke logon ne protest kiya tha....

Logon ne fir protest kiya toh railway ne fir se broad gauge line bithane ki planning ki aur Bithur station banaya. Par Bithur se trains bahut kam chal rahi hain. Mandhana aur Bithur ke beech ek halt station banne wala tha, par woh bhi kam earning ke karan cancel kar diya gaya. Bithur ko Lucknow railway line se Ganga par bridge bana kar jodne ki planning bhi adhuri reh gayi hai. Yeh planning thi ki Lucknow ka Azgain station se Farrukhabad jaane wali train, Bithur aur Mandhana se hoti hue nikle, aur Kanpur Central jaane ki jarurat na pade.
