Rawatpur is a one platformed station lying in Kanpur city. Only passenger trains stop here. There is a metro station of the same name next to it. Not much in terms of passenger amenties at the station. A relatively small entrance as visible.

Kanpur Metro at peak time. :p There were like 3 people in the 3 coacher train. When I purchased tickets from Rawatpur station, there was no passenger at the station waiting to board in either UP/DN direction. Which is a shame because on the roads, there are enough folks to fill 3 coaches. Maybe, the high price of the metro deters them.

Eithercase, the metro starts from IIT Kanpur and at Motijheel. Maybe if it connected the main railway station, it would get better patronage. I had to get a direct

auto from Kalyanpur to CNB and it was crowded, plus took more time than what a metro system would have taken.

Lucknow metro also suffered from similarly poor attribute when it was opened in only the airport-railway station section. Now despite still being a single 20+ km line, it gets okayish patronage and sometimes, all the seats are even filled [like when train comes and there's a spike in pax]. Hopefully furthur branches/lines on both Lucknow and Kanpur Metro will help them get better throughput.

World Tourism Day: 27 September 2024

→ BEST TOURIST PLACES IN JAMALPUR:

#Jamalpur_Workshop
...
more...

Jamalpur Locomotive Workshop that came into being in 1862 is a must visit destination in the city. Here you can get glimpses of the rich history of India railways. Further you can also find many heritage locomotive engines in and around the workshop. The workshop is operating even today and is making valuable contribution to Indian railways.

#Jamalpur_Gymkhana

Jamalpur gymkhana is a graded hostel for the special class Railway Apprentices of Indian Railways. It is a technical school which was established in the year 1888. It was established adjacent to the Jamalpur workshop. Short term courses are conducted by the IRIMEE for the IRSME Officers. Like any other Gymkhana, the Jamalpur Gymkhana is also a club. The only difference is the limitation of membership for the trainee officers or the special class railway apprentices.

#JSA_Stadium_and_Golf_Course

JSA Stadium is one of the best maintained stadiums in the state. A number of football matches have been held between different teams in the eastern region over the last century.The Jamalpur golf course is one of the oldest golf courses in India which was established in 1912. The annual ITC Golf tournament is also held in the Jamalpur golf course. There is also the grave of an Englishman killed by a tiger found in this golf course and nearby is the grave of the tiger which killed him.

#Kali_Pahadi

Out of the several places of interest in Jamalpur, Kali Pahadi is the most famous one. It is a small hill which servers to be a major picnic spot for the tourists and as well as the local visitors. There is a temple on top of the hill which is dedicated to Goddess Kali. It is also one of those places where the Guru of Ananda Marga, who is known as ‘Baba’ used to mediate.

#Madras_Coffee_House

Madras Coffee House is a very popular hotel in Jamalpur especially among the tourists. This was initially a tiny shop selling sweet meats which was about half a century old. Now, with a view to cater the culinary needs of the south India people, the Madras Coffee House is very famous. This place even though famous does not have much to describe about. It is almost like a restaurant with small accommodation for not more than two people and a tiny telephone booth.

#Pir_Baba

This name of the city of Jamalpur comes from Pir Jamaluddin as his grave lies at this place and it is considered as an honor to pay an obeisance at this holy place on Golf Road, especially on Fridays.

#Death_Valley

Death Valley is named so for a couple of reasons. Firstly, because of its formerly dense jungle frequented by many dangerous animals and secondly it is known that a group of soldiers had disappeared in that area long before. There was no trace of any of the soldiers. Apart from that the nature around this place is very beautiful. It is also said that ‘Baba’ spent most of his time in that particular place especially under the Tamarind Tree. This place would be like heaven for spiritual practitioners for some peaceful meditation.

→ HOW TO REACH JAMALPUR:

Unki soch aur mere soch dono alag alag hai. Farak ye hai ki unko lagta hai ki Bhagalpur, Dumka se log Howrah jaye aur Howrah me Paisa kharch kare. Yadi Bhagalpur, Anga Pradesh, Santhal Pargana ka bikas nahi hua to uska mul karan ye hai ki unko Howrah bada shahr lagta hai jabki mereko Bhagalpur, Dumka , Godda bada shahar lagta hai. Meri soch yehi hai ki Howrah ke log , Bengal ke log yaha Basukinath me Pooja kre , Mandar Hill dekhle , Vikramshila dekhle , Sultanganj jakar dekhe, saradin dekhne ke bad wo Jamalpur Howrah pakadle Kahalgaon Bhagalpur se. Bengal ke log Bhagalpur, Dumka akar Paisa kharch kare.

Godda ke logo ne mujhe 4bar sansad banaya hai, jese Ma baap ki karz kabhi nahi chuka sakte wese hi Godda ke logo ka karz me kabhi nahi chuka payunga. Jese Ma bap hamari seva karte hai waise hi mai Godda ke logo ko seva kar raha hu. Vande Bharat Nonihat, Dumka, Mandar Hill, Barahat me ruk rahi hai jisse Garib , pichde shetro ko is train me chadne ka mauka mile , Bardhaman ye train nahi rukti lekin pichde ilako ko is Vande Bharat me safar karne ka poora adhikar hai "

a train be it a vande bharat or a fast intercity in the morning from BGP would have attracted more pax than the current Vande Bharat!

Deoghar Airport ki connectivity dhang ki kaise nahi hai sir? 5 Destinations directly connected hain aur 3-4 daily flights hain.Desh ke konse major city ke liye 5-7 hours ki connecting flight nahi mil rahi aap zara ye bataaein!
Aur Ujjain se Deoghar ka comparison obviously nahi kiya ja sakta.2000 me Jharkhand banne ke baad hi Deoghar ka development start hua hai.Madhya Pradhesh ke city se iska compare nahi kiya ja sakta.Deoghar me bhi Vikaas ho raha hai aur ye humein dikh bhi raha hai. Overnight ye Ujjain ya Kashi nahi bann jaaega

Modi ji MP hain Kashi ke. Wahaan ke corridor se compare kar diya aapne Deoghar ko. Nishikant Dubey kuch bhi kar lein, Modi toh nahi bann jaaenge na. Baanki 3 saal me 5 airport connected hai. Ye aapko pata nahi kaise kam lag raha hai. 5 cities mention karke aapne only likh diya. Darbhanga , Durgapur all have 5-6 connections only. Infact Gaya being so old an airport has only 2 direct domestic connections to Delhi and Kolkata . Uske baad bhi aapne “Only” likh diya toh I think it’s better not to talk aviation related stuff.

Durgapur airport se 4-5 nhi, 8 flights hai presently - Delhi, Chennai, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Mumbai, Siliguri, Guwahati, Bhubaneswar. Additionally, a 2nd flight for Delhi and direct flights to Pune, Ahmedabad and Jaipur also has been announced but their inaugural dates have been not stated yet.

Durgapur has very high potential sir.I’m well aware of the fact.Even I used it as my first choice untill 2022.My intention was not to compare Deoghar airport with Durgapur airport. I just wanted to prove that growth in aviation sector isn’t as quick as in railways. Getting a new flight isn’t as easy as getting a new train. And as per your statements, Durgapur itself is the best example of it. So 5 airports connected in 2 years isn’t a bad deal.
He mentioned Deoghar airport isn’t well connected and I only wanted to reply to that

Durgapur airport has govt SBSTC buses on regular intervals from city centre bus stand, Durgapur and City bus stand, Asansol. U can get down either at Durgapur or Asansol and easily reach the airport by taking SBSTC buses.
Bus timings are present in the KNI airport official page.

Those ASN-Karunamoyee/Esplanade buses merely drop at the Bengal Aerotropolis gate on the NH. There's a bus shelter built by the name of KNI airport on the highway. Then one has to arrange transport to reach the terminal, which is painful. Only the dedicated buses from Durgapur City Center drop you in front of the terminal, but the number of services is less. After arriving at the airport, waiting for hours to board a bus isn't desirable. However, I always found the number of taxis abundant for passenger needs.
Compared to the airport at Bagdogra, there are no NBSTC buses dropping passengers at the terminal. The buses drop the passengers on the NH, but the distance is still sort of walkable, and for

Ranchi had RIMS and Dhanbad had SNMMC(ex PMCH) . I won’t say Deoghar in specific, but Santhal Pargana region was badly in need of a good Govt. aided hospital. So yeah Deoghar did deserve the AIIMS.
The airport followed the AIIMS as it had become essential owing to movements of AIIMS personnel and air ambulance facilities etc.
So we know what we deserved more than an outsider .
