The Delhi-Mumbai train route remained severely affected for the second
consecutive day as the Gujjar Arakshan Sangharsh Samiti continued their
stir on Saturday, demanding five per cent reservation in jobs and
educational institutes.
Led by Col. Kirori Singh Meena, the
Gujjars continued blocking the train track between Malarna and Nimoda
railway station which led to the disruption of train running on the
Mumbai-Delhi route.
The cancelled trains include
Nizamuddin-Indore Express, Dehradun Express, among others. Those
travelling on these routes are facing the blues due to the agitation.
The passengers of other states are also facing a tough time due to cancellation and route diversion.
Patna-Ahmedabad
train route has been changed and Jaipur Bayana express has been
partially cancelled. Hazrat Nizamuddin-Udaipur route has been changed.
Similarly,
the route has been changed for Firozpur Cantt.-Mumbai train,
Ahmedabad-Shri Vaishnu Devi Katra train, Mumbai Central- Amritsar train
among others.
The trains coming from Delhi have been stopped at Bayana.
The agitation by Gujjars has also led to the plying of roadways buses on Hindaun-Karauli route.
The
Rajasthan government has formed a three-member ministerial committee on
late Friday night to initiate a dialogue with Gujjar leaders.
The
members include Rajasthan Health Minister Raghu Sharma, Tourism
Minister Vishwendra Singh and Minister for Social Justice Bhanwarlal
Meghwal. The committee also includes IAS officer Neeraj K. Pawan.
Security
has been tightened in Bharatpur, Karauli, Sawai Madhopur, Dausa and
Tonk to avert violence and disruption in supply of essential goods.
