Maintain status quo of MEMU Special departure timing from Bengaluru-Mysuru

Sir,

Train No.06575 “MEMU” Special is really a boon to all commuters of KSR Bengaluru City Railway Station to Mysuru and vice versa, en route in each and every aspect, economically, financially and also time-wise, which reaches the destinations earlier than the so-called superfast trains with higher fare, many a time.

The present departure timing 19.50 from KSR is most ideal for one and all as one could catch the train after  finishing all works at company, factory, miscellaneous, despite even attending functions, after escaping from typical traffic snarls and jams.

To be frank, it started giving a bad business to other means of transports since people preferred MEMU. It is also observed that many passengers park their own vehicles and get into Memu train for its feasibility.

Of late passengers are likely to be handicapped because of the proposed change in departure timings from  KSR at 17.20 but kept in abeyance which is most inconvenient even to reach, let alone catch our Special MEMU.

Hence, I request the authorities concerned to maintain the status quo of the same departure timing as 19.50 from KSR  Bengaluru to Mysuru.
