A short cut rail line is required to connect Mumbai-Nashik city-Dhule-Malegaon-Mhow-Indore, which can reduce Mumbai-Indore rail distance to below 600kms & form an alternate Mumbai-Delhi Route via Maksi-Guna-GWL-AGC-NDLS. Such line shall be much more useful than the ongoing ChotaUdepur-Dhar & Dahod-Indore new line projects.
