Passengers at Sihor Railway Station are facing difficulties due to the lack of a foot overbridge. This lack of accessibility causes inconvenience for all travelers, especially the elderly, women, and children. The station serves as a hub for trains connecting Sihor to various cities, including Palitana, Dwarka (Okha), Mumbai, Surendranagar, Rajkot,...

and other locations. Despite the station's importance, the absence of an overbridge forces travelers to navigate challenging crossings between platforms, especially the significant height difference between platforms 1 and 2. The issue has been brought to the attention of the railway authorities numerous times, but no action has been taken, leading to frustration among passengers and calls for the construction of a foot overbridge to improve accessibility and safety. This call is especially emphasized by Bhavesh Vora, Minister of the Sihor Chamber of Commerce and Industry.

Sihor Railway Station pe foot overbridge nahin hone ki wajah se passengers bahut pareshan ho rahe hain. Isse aane jane wale sabhi musafir, especially buddhe, ladies aur bachche pareshan ho rahe hain. Ye station Palitana, Dwarka (Okha), Mumbai, Surendranagar, Rajkot, aur aise hi aur bhi bahut saare cities se connect karta...

hai. Lekin itna bada station hone ke bawajood, overbridge nahin hone ki wajah se passengers ko platform 1 se platform 2 tak jaane mein bahut dikkat ho rahi hai, especially unki height mein bahut difference hai. Is issue ke bare mein railway authorities ko bahut baar bataya gaya hai, par koi action nahin liya gaya hai. Isse passengers bahut frustrated hain aur unka demand hai ki foot overbridge banaya jaye, jisse unki accessibility aur safety improve ho sake. Ye demand Sihor Chamber of Commerce and Industry ke Minister Bhavesh Vora ne bhi kiya hai.
