Respected Sir,
I am a student of engineering, which is located in Boisar(Theem college of Engineering). I live in Dadar and most of the students of our college come from Mumbai side. One of my classmates comes from Dombivali. So, we students have to spend 5 to 6 hours in travelling itself. Also there are no sufficient autorickshaws in Boisar, so as to reach the station(there are totel 240 students presently but after July 2010 more 240 students will join the college. So there will be more autorickshaw problem). Sometimes, when we reach the station, we are one to two minutes late and the train is gone. There is so much interval of time between the arrival of trains (going towards Mumbai) at Boisar station. After one train is gone, the other train comes 1 hour after the previous train. Hence we do not get much time for study. Till we reach home, it is already 8 pm.
The names of the trains (going towards Mumbai from Boisar station) and their timings are as follows :-
1) Virar shuttle ----> 3:18 pm
2) Saurashtra express ----> 4:28 pm
3) Firozpur express ----> 5:40 pm
4) Bandra intercity express ----> 6:22 pm
(Our college usually ends at 5 pm, but sometimes they even leave us at 3pm or 4 pm)
So, please Sir, it is my humble request to increse the number of trains between 3 to 6 pm at Boisar station OR start the Churchgate- Dahanu Local trains as soon as possible OR increase number of Memu locals. Please, this is affecting our studies, this message is from all the students
yours sincerely,
a troubled citizen
