MPs from Jharkhand are demanding a separate railway zone for Jharkhand.
Do you think a separate zone is required ?

Agree Useful Useful
I doubt SER will approve this. Running a MEMU doesn’t even require RB approval and if SER wanted this then TATA-BKSC MEMU would have been running already. This demand is since decades. SER never ever introduced a MEMU for BKSC to TATA, CKP, KGP and ROU. Local connectivity is pathetic.

I would really like SER to explain and justify the quota allocation for BKSC-PNBE sector of this train.

2S - 80 against RNC-PNBE 1084
CC- 12 against RNC-PNBE 37

seats allocated to BKSC. This looks like a big joke to be very honest for a station which is a major boarding point for this train after RNC. I can pick today’s chart and calculate total boarding numbers from BKSC. Even Muri is under General quota. If I file an RTI, average number of passengers boarding will be higher than allocated seats due to WL tickets getting cleared. This really fluctuates the number of passengers booking a confirmed seat and everyday BKSC-PNBE is wait listed but seats are available from RNC. This even impacts the revenue contribution of BKSC if we limit number of seats. Now, those having WL ticket may clear but not everyone will keep WL ticket till chart preparation or book from Muri and change boarding point.

This is beyond any logical explanation.

Agree
one of the reasons why BKSC will take years to become NSG-2. Probably never if this continues.
