Tribune News Service

Mohali, November 26

Residents of the city today demanded that the Shatabdi Express be extended up to Mohali so that passengers from the international airport could use the same to reach their destination in the neighbouring cities as well as states.

The Mohali BJP unit, led by Sanjeev Vashisht, met the Chairman, Passenger Services Committee (PSC) (Railway Board), Ministry of Railways, Ramesh Chandra Ratna, who was in the city to inspect the services being provided to the people at the local railway station.

Vashisht said the Shatabdi Express train should originate and culminate at Mohali. He also demanded that the Amritsar-Lal Kuan Express must be extended to Haldwani as thousands of migrant labourers working in various industrial units in the district could benefit from the same. He said many businessmen also go for work to Haldwani not only from Mohali but also from Jalandhar, Ludhiana, and other nearby places.
