Services of Yeshvantpur-Murdeshwar Weekly Special Express to be Discontinued From June 24

Yeshvantpur-Murdeshwar-Yeshvantpur Weekly Express Special will be making its last run on June 24 from Yeshvantpur and June 25 from Murdeshwar. The South Western Railway (SWR) has not extended the periodicity of the service beyond these dates. Sources also said the SWR headquarters was in favour of the extension; however, the Bengaluru Division was adamant on discontinuation.

Public did not expect such a popular service getting discontinued for operational reasons. They were expecting that the service was made regular one from the Special service and were demanding its extension to Karwar as it was convenient for employees who finish their week’s work.
