1. MFR MP: Overnight ka halt at SRID. Absolutely nonsense. It'll be better if the MP actually thinks about the development of his constituency than indulge in malarkey.
2. JBP MP: Corona me band hui trains should be started again (JBP Kota Express, ET KTE Express). GGGS aur GRG ko WCR me include karne se na jane kya expectations hain inke. WCR already MML aur ADTL k liye kuchh nahin kar raha. JBP R VB again illogical. Instead VM can be tried. JBP ASR train a good suggestion. MPSK daily isn't required. MML par JBP SMNH aur GR ka halt is a great and the most valuable suggestion. In fact JBP ki saari trains should halt at MML.

STA MP: STA AYC train isn't required I guess. Pax can change from ALD if required.
4. HBD MP: Great suggestion to increase the number of UR and SL coaches.
5. DMO MP: DMO se NGP train kaise chal sakti. There aren't terminal facilities I guess.
6. SGRL MP: SGRL BPL and SGRL NZM ki frequency abhi to increase hui thi. Itna rush hai kya in trains me?
7. RS MP: JBP Pune train to shayad 15 years se special ki tarah hi chal rahi. Saari political trains regular ho jati/ regular introduce hoti, but these JBP k politicians are impotent. JBP HYB can be tried via G NGP if the days of operation and schedule are carefully worked out.

Re# 6189597-3              
Yea, all this meanwhile sirf SGRL BPL and SGRL NZM ka hi sunane me aata. SGRL INDB is crucial. The energy capital is still unconnected with the commercial capital.
SGRL should demand to get shifted to WCR. That might actually help. If SGRL would've been in WCR, at least the morning ICE could have become a reality.
