The extension of Bhubaneswar-Khallikote Pass upto Chatrapur is most welcome. But actually it is not a wise decision. Because daily 'n' number of passengers from Berhampur travel to and fro Bhubaneswar. So in my view it should have been extended upto Berhampur in stead of Chatrapur. So it is my humble request to the MP Berhampur,MLAs of Chatrapur, Gopalpur and Berhampur and the Railway Authority to reconsider the decision and extend the train upto Berhampur to cater more people.
