Khana-new jalpaiguri railway route should be upgraded imidately 130 kmph for smooth running of various prestigeous train of nfr like DARJELLING MAIL,SARAIGHAT,PADATIK,SATABDI and various south bound train.....i think with electrification it is also important because it is howrah -guwahati main railway route.....for only track restriction many train in this section get late but it is a very vital route that connect eastern india to north -east #KhanaPakurELectrification.....
