Commuter associations in Kasara on Sunday met Central Railway General Manager Dharam Veer Meena, urging a new alignment from Kasara to Jawhar and improvements in the Kalyan-Kasara suburban section.

“There are daily problems for suburban commuters travelling to Mumbai. We have demanded better punctuality and improved services on this route,” said Rajesh Ghanghav, president of the Kalyan Kasara Karjat (K3) Railway Passengers Association. Railway officials accepted the petition and assured commuters that their demands would be reviewed.
