Panel of Lok Sabha MPs visit Bhandup, Ghatkopar stations
Kemmannu News Network, 20-05-2015 19:21:00
Ex Railway minister Dinesh Trivedi, BJP MP Kirit Somaiya and chairman of a petition committee of Lok Sabha MPs, Bhagat Singh Koshyari, travel in a local train on Tuesday to understand commuters’ problems
A petition committee comprising 15 Lok Sabha MPs on Tuesday visited Bhandup and Ghatkopar railway stations to take stock of problems faced by commuters of local trains, and safety measures at the stations. The committee’s visit was in response to a petition submitted by Mumbai Rail Pravasi Sangh, a city-based NGO, which drew Parliament’s attention towards commuter safety and problems. BJP MP Kirit Somaiya had forwarded the petition to Lok Sabha.
Bhagat Singh Koshyari, chairman of the committee, said Mumbaikars will see the good results after their visits.
“We have gathered necessary information and this visit is really going to be fruitful for the people of Mumbai,” Mr Koshyari said. The committee members held formal discussions with the representatives of the Ministry of Railways and said that necessary action would be taken after due deliberations on all points involved.
The members also visited the spot at Ghatkopar station where a student of SNDT college student Monica More had lost both her hands after falling off while trying to board a train. They also interacted with her briefly.
Former Railway minister Dinesh Trivedi, who was part of the committee, took a swipe at the Centre’s bullet train project, saying it should care about the suburban local commuters first, who are forced to travel like “cattle” during peak hours.
Mr Trivedi pointed out the jampacked and highly overloaded suburban local trains here and said, “Just see how the people are forced to travel like cattle. Even cattle travel better than this. First make common man’s travel dignified and then talk about bullet trains. The bitter part of the truth is that the foundation of Indian Railways is shaken.”
Madhu Kotian, petitioner in the case and president of Mumbai Rail Pravasi Sangh said, “It’s good to see MPs following my petition.”
