I agree, but just a diversion of about 10-20 Kms can bring a Taluka place like Nilanga under a BG line and that can help the people.
If you are aware Usmanabad was no where on the Barshi- Latur narrow guage line, but when the new BG line was put, the route was diverted to cover Usmanabad.
As per MP Ravi Gaikwad, the proposed route is from Ausa- Kasarsirsi- Nilanga- Omerga- Aland, which I believe is being surveyed.
please wait...Translate to EnglishI totally get what you're saying, man! Just taking a little detour of about 10-20 Kms could connect a small town like Nilanga to a big railway line, and that would be super helpful for the folks there, you know?
Check this out, bro! Usmanabad wasn't even on the Barshi-Latur narrow gauge line, but when they built the new big gauge line, they changed the route just so they could include Usmanabad. Talk about being flexible, right?
According to MP Ravi Gaikwad, the planned route is gonna be Ausa-Kasarsirsi-Nilanga-Omerga-Aland, and I heard they're already doing a survey for it.
