Tatanagar: Kurmis plan agitation at Kotshila station, 95 trains to remain cancelled on April 9

496 trains cancelled since April

Jamshedpur, April 8: At least 74 trains were cancelled on Saturday as members of different Kurmi organisations squatted on the Kharagpur-Tatanagar and Adra-Chandil sections of the South Eastern Railways in West Bengal to press their demands.  

Long-distance trains were cancelled due to the agitation staged by the Kurmi outfits, which entered its fourth day on Saturday.

Railway has decided to cancel 95 trains on Sunday, April 9 and 54 trains on Monday, April 10 due to ongoing agitation at Kustaur Station in Adra Division and Khemasuli Station in Kharagpur Division from April 5 and proposed agitation at Kotshila station in Adra Division on April 9.

South Eastern Railway officials said that both long-distance and local passengers suffered due to the rail blockade by the Kurmi organisations, which have been agitating over a string of demands that include recognition as a Scheduled Tribe, recognition of ‘Sarna’ religion and inclusion of Kurmali language in the Eighth Schedule of the Constitution.

The organisations claiming to represent the interests of the Kurmi people are based mainly in the Chotanagpur plateau covering Jharkhand, Odisha and West Bengal.

As a result of the agitation, total 496 trains have been cancelled since April 5.
