Coimbatore: Members of Thanthai Periyar Dravida Kazhagu on Tuesday protested in front of the Thudiangen Bus Stand demanding the South Railway to increase the mettupalayam frequency – Coimbatore Mainline Electric Multic Unit (MUU) and reduce tariffs.
The train made five days a day with six cessation covering 43km.
This service was stopped last year due to a pandemic.
The service was continued in March this year as a special train with three times the cost of pre-covid.
This train only makes one day trip with decline reduced to four of six.
“The train has jumped over the Periyanenickenyam and Thudiangur train station which caused discomfort for the people.
But the train refused to stop the train in these stations despite significant relaxation of Covid norms,” ​​said Secretary General of TPDK K Ramakrishnan.
Tasteful work in Mettupalayam Road has caused discomfort for people to reach coimbirths from Thudiangur and Periyajang.
While the train offers a comfortable choice, the train chooses to skip the termination of administrative problems.
Now, Covid norms have relaxed and train services are kept back, cessation needs to be improved for a memorable, he said.
Ask for what prevents the train stop at these two stations, a senior official from Southern Railway says that there is no master station at these stations.
When a counter ticket in PeriyaCenickepalayam and Thudiary is operated by private players, fresh tenders need to be spent to operate the ticket counter.
“It might not be feasible for private players to run the ticket counter with reduced rates,” said the train official.
The protesters also demanded season tickets for school and college students, which were issued by pre-covid.
While schools and colleges have been reopened, trains must advance to publish season tickets.
