tamirdanwade 37 blog postsKolhapur region(which include kolhapur satara sangli district also part of solapur district west of pandharpur ) is being constantly neglected. CR is no doubt the busiest zone of railways. But it can not provide sufficient attention to this region. For this zone handling Mumbai suburban itself is a big task it handles all needs of mumbai long distance trains also. Till nearly a decade ago Pune was also being neglected by CR for obious reasons(handling Mumbai itself is very big task) but as Pune has evolved in to a another metro in the state they can no more neglect it. Pune is also getting good share in form of new projects(e.g. pune nashik new line) new trains in railway budget. But Kolhapur region is nowhere in CR agenda. Unfornunately we dont have our own divisional headquarter(unlike solapur,bhusawal,nagpur) We dont have any mean by which we can put forward our demands. It...

Agreed... Kolhapur is an imp. city of MH and first it should have dedicated trains to all major places of Maharashtra. Also, a new line should be built at the earliest to connect Kolhapur to Konkan to improve trade and tourism
My opinion.
1 Mumbai Sub urban should be a separate zone.
2 Miraj/Kolhapur should be a new division or Pune should be a new zone.

Nothing is going to happen. I have written many mails to MLA,MP, Railway ministry, no one is interested to even reply. So forget about this train. Today i have mailed to new Rail Minister, lets see if something happens. You guys also can drop mails or letters. Powerful leader from your region can get train, but they are least interested.
We have to learn from Marathwada people. Their success rate is very high in terms of getting their demands fulfilled. They have a established a system. Experts among st them every time suggest new trains new projects after detailed study well in advance. Which are generally accepted because there is no haphazardness.
Western Maharashtra should also have similar system which should include experts from railways, economical experts, MLAs, MPs, IAS officers.

Once upon a time Western Maharashtra was a developed part of Maharashtra. Kolhapur, Sangli, Satara, Ichalkaranji were counted amongst developed cities in India leave apart the state. That time economy was agriculture driven.....and our lands were(infact still are) goldmines. After Mumbai Per capita Income of Kolhapur disrict was highest...we proudly used to say.... weastern Maharashtra is richest part of India. This part of country produced many great persons in every field. Infact if you check 1)first film studio was in kolhapur.2) indias first circus was started in kolhapur 3) indias first olympic medal winner was from kolhapur 4) indias first oscar award winner was from kolhapur.............. and so on. It was said that every good new thing in India was used to originate in western Maharashtra. People here used to be ahead of other people in terms of progressive thinkiing.
