Stop Rail Mahadharna at Katuna Halt in Jamui: Dozens of villagers demonstrated for stoppage of trains, deployment of police forces in large numbers

On Sunday, villagers protested Rail Roko Mahadharna and demanded stoppage of trains which were already stopped at Jamui’s Katuna halt. During this, Katuna Halt was completely converted into a police cantonment. At the same time, the people involved in the dharna raised slogans fiercely.

13 trains were stopping since 1999

National Corruption Mukti Morcha District President Chandrachur Singh said that since 1999, 13 trains were stopping here, but it is closed since the Corona period. As before, this Mahadharna was performed to give stoppage of trains. He told that if the Danapur division officials do not fulfill the demand of stoppage of the train soon, then in the coming days, they will stop the train and protest furiously. He said that it was unanimously decided in the dharna that at that time there was no trace of halts like Rajla, Telva Kunder, Basuachak, Lakhochak, Maheshleta etc. Since that time all passenger trains were halting at Katuna Halt. Now that the corona pandemic is over and all the halts are being halted, then all the trains should also stop at the Katuna halts.
