Residents around the Boribel Railway Station are facing inconvenience as the Pune-Solapur passenger rail has been closed since the Corona lockdown. And the residents have started a hunger strike to start the rail service and include a halt at the Boribel Railway Station, mentioned NCP Supriya Sule in a post on X (formerly Twitter).
Sule mentioned that, “The Pune-Solapur passenger train used to stop at Boribel Railway Station. This used to help and was convenient for the citizens of the area. But many trains including this one that were closed during the Corona period are yet to be started causing inconvenience to the citizens.”
Local citizens are repeatedly appealing and following up with the Railway department to start these trains and make them stop at Boribel station but still they are not taken into consideration.
“This is very regrettable. The villagers have finally taken the path of hunger strike against this. My humble request to the Union Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw is that you please take serious note of this and give instructions to the concerned to restart the Pune-Solapur passenger train service,” Sule added.
