The Margao-Mangalore train on Konkan route has been discontinued causing great hardship and inconvenience to the commuters specially those visiting religious places like Gokarn, Murdeswar, etc. One has to depend on long distance trains invariably off the schedule and travel standing which is tedious, uncomfortable for seniors, ladies. Time is lost in waiting for the train at stations and then travelling in a crowded bogey making the journey totally tiresome. The plight of those going to other places on the route can be imagined. The train was convenient to one and all and the journey could be undertaken comfortably with family, children, friends and elders also for sick persons going for treatment. It is hoped the Railway authorities realize the plight of commuters and restore local trains connecting Margao and Mangalore immediately.
