Raipur 05 July 2024// Chhattisgarh Women and Child Development Minister Smt. Laxmi Rajwade has written a letter to Union Railway Minister Shri Ashwini Vaishnaw, urging him to reinstate the stoppage of the Ambikapur Durg Express at Kamalpur.
In her letter, Minister Smt. Laxmi Rajwade highlighted that previously, the Ambikapur Durg Express made regular stops at Kamalpur Railway Station. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Railways temporarily suspended this stoppage.
During her recent visit to the area, Smt. Rajwade noted that local residents have repeatedly requested the reinstatement of the Kamalpur stoppage. Nearly 3,500 individuals residing in and around Kamalpur depend on this railway connection. Besides, there is a huge vegetable market located in the village of Silphili near the station. Notably, Kamalpur Station is only 15 kilometers away from Ambikapur.
Smt. Rajwade also informed that a considerable number of commuters travel daily from Ambikapur to Vishrampur. Hence, by resuming the stoppage at Kamalpur, residents from Ambikapur, Vishrampur, Kamalpur, and nearby villages would greatly benefit.
