of the Jabalpur-Chitrakoot Express to Chhindwara. He also brought up the delayed police verification and medical checkups for laborers working at the Chhindwara goods shed, the lack of regular cleaning in trains originating from Chhindwara, and the need for a subway near the railway crossing in Chhindwara city. The railway administration cited capacity constraints as a reason for not immediately implementing the train proposals and indicated that they would consider them after the completion of infrastructure work. The request for a passenger train between Chhindwara and Balaghat via Tumusar was also raised.

Yea, all this meanwhile sirf SGRL BPL and SGRL NZM ka hi sunane me aata. SGRL INDB is crucial. The energy capital is still unconnected with the commercial capital.
SGRL should demand to get shifted to WCR. That might actually help. If SGRL would've been in WCR, at least the morning ICE could have become a reality.
