Union Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw Fulfills TN BJP’s Railway Stop Requests In Tamil Nadu

Tamil Nadu BJP State Secretary, A Ashvathaman, delivered a petition endorsed by 1,000 individuals to Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw, urging for the halt of express train services at specific stations.

The Union Minister fulfilled two of BJP’s requests for train stops in a single day. On the morning of 14 March, 2024, Tamil Nadu BJP State Secretary Ashvathaman requested the Union Minister Railways Ashwini Vaishnaw, during his visit to Chennai, to implement the demands for express trains to halt at Ulundurpettai in Kallakurichi district and for the Tiruchendur express train to stop at Kuthalam in Mayiladuthurai district.

Minister Vaishnaw promptly instructed railway officials present to ensure the immediate fulfillment of these demands. Later that night, the Railway Board issued a report confirming that the Kollam Express would halt at Ulundurpet and the Tiruchendur Express at Kuthalam. The specific commencement dates for these halts is expected to be announced subsequently. The expeditious fulfillment of these longstanding requests by BJP State Secretary Ashvathaman has brought considerable satisfaction to the residents of Ulundurpet and Kuthalam.

Additionally, Ashvathaman submitted another petition to Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw, this time concerning the cessation of express trains at Panruti in Cuddalore district. Minister Vaishnaw pledged to address both petitions.
