a waste of money, while others believe that places should be named after their historical significance.

Naye naam yeh hain: Kasimpur Railway Station ko Jais City, Jais Railway Station ko Guru Gorakhnath Dham Station, Bani Railway Station ko Swami Paramhans Station, Misrauli Railway Station ko Maa Kalika Dham, Nihalgarh Railway Station ko Maharaja Bijli Paasi, Akbarganj Railway Station ko Maa Ahoriwa Bhavani Dham, Warisganj Halt ko Amar Shaheed Bhale Sultan, aur Fursatganj Railway Station ko Tapeshwarnath Dham.
