There is also a possibility of diverting Mannai express via TVR, and splitting it as MS/MQ and MS/VLKN at TVR itself. Once the train reaches TVR from MS, VLKN slip will be detached, MQ slip will proceed and another Loco will pull the VLKN slip on the opposite direction.

In that plan, I suggested, 2 sleeper coaches, 1 t tier AC coach and 2 unreserved coaches. Already, quota for TJ/KMU was reduced to 100 Sleeper Seats from October 11 onwards.

Yes I do agree with you. A separate ONT is the need of the hour. This is a first step towards that. The very urgent issue is, due to loco reversal at Needamangalam, the railway gate on the National Highways is closed for more than 20 minutes both morning and evening. So people approached the High Court.

These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
