The delegation also requests the merger of Konkan Railway Corporation with the Indian Railways to expedite the project and address the corporation's financial constraints. The delegation also emphasizes the need to commence the weekly train service between Mangalore Central and Bhavanagar, approved in June 2022, and to address the high ticket fares on the Konkan Railway route compared to other lines. They also advocate for a new railway line from Honavar to Talaguppa to enable direct train connectivity from Mangalore to Shimoga, benefiting the region.

Group ne yeh bhi request kiya hai ki Konkan Railway Corporation ko Indian Railways mein merge kar diya jaaye taaki project jaldi ho sake aur corporation ki financial difficulties bhi door ho jaaye. Group ne yeh bhi kaha ki June 2022 mein approve hue Mangalore Central aur Bhavanagar ke beech weekly train service ko shuru kar diya jaaye, aur Konkan Railway route par dusre routes ke muqabale ticket rates bhi bahut zyada hain, usko kam kiya jaaye. Unhone Honavar se Talaguppa tak new railway line banane ka bhi support kiya hai taaki Mangalore se Shimoga tak direct train service start ho sake, jisse is area ke logon ko faayda hoga.
