Yadgir activists demand commercial halt for Vande Bharat Express at Yadgir Railway Station, second highest revenue collection station.
The most-anticipated Kalaburagi-SMVT Bengaluru-Kalaburagi Vande Bharat Express train service (Train Nos 22231/22232) will be launched on March 12. This train will have commercial stops in Raichur, Guntakal, Anantpur and Yelahanka.
However, the decision of the Railways to not have a commercial halt in Yadgir has caused a huge disappointment among the general public and activists in Yadgir.
On Sunday, activists of a pro-Kannada organization, Karnataka Rakshana Vedike (Narayana Gowda group), submitted a memorandum addressed to the Railway Minister through officials at Yadgir Railway Station, demanding a commercial halt for Vande Bharat Express at Yadgir for the convenience of passengers.
Yadgir Railway Station is said to be the second highest revenue collection station in the Guntakal Division of the Railways.
The activists also demanded an announcement by the Railways providing for stoppage facility for super-fast and express trains passing through Yadgir Railway Station at Yadgir.

Away from the memorial of saint-composer Thyagaraja in Thiruvaiyaru, where his 179th aradhana is marked by five days of uninterrupted concerts, unchavritti and rendering of the Pancharatna kritis, a parallel aradhana is under way in Thanjavur. In the narrow Varagappa Iyer Lane off the bustling South Main Street, devotees queue up at a house named after Thyagaraja. It is here that the idols of Rama, Sita, Lakshmana, Bharata, Shatrughna and Anjaneya, worshipped by Thyagaraja himself, are preserved, along with a portrait of the saint-composer said to have been drawn by his disciples.
