I agree with this point. Trains like Bundelkhand express and barauni mail actually originated from Jhansi. These were extended to gwalior, and still the majority patronage of theses trains is from Jhansi and not gwalior. I don't think therewas a huge ruckus created in jhansi for extensionof these trains but people in gwalior did overreact to taj and indb ice extensions. (It took years for us to get the train to Indore even though the extension was approved when shri pradeep jain the then MP of jhansi was a minister.

As far as the gwl jhs rivalry is concerned it goes a long way since 1857.

In fact many of my classmates preferred Bhopal over Kanpur and Lucknow for higher studies because of better connectivity.
Please don't generalize things.
Also Jhansi fort was built by the king of orchha.

improper division I meant since we speak the same language and have same culture we should have been put together, but obvioisly why would that matter to British, when they annexed Jhansi.
