Unfortunately there is no rail link between the main urban centre of the State’s southern region (Berhampur) and the steel city (Rourkela),” laments Siba Prasad, a resident of Berhampur.
He points out that Berhampur and Rourkela are two primary rail heads in the southern and western Odisha. Till 2002, the Hirakhand Express used to connect the two cities, but of late it has been withdrawn too, causing inconvenience to the commuters.
Prasad observes that if the two cities are linked by a train, it would not only bring the two important zones of the State closer but would also lead to development of both regions. Besides, the train link would be connecting 10 districts and four major urban centres, he points out.
