The Praja.in Commuter Rail initiative lays out the need and urgency of running full fledged commuter trains under a dedicated SPV set up for this purpose like in Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata, Delhi & Hyderabad. There are already more than 250 kilometers of Indian Railways tracks around the city (no need for expensive new infrastructure) and frequent trains to local destinations on these routes will benefit more than 50 lakh citizens from Bengaluru and suburbs. See here for more on this service the routes the destinations etc.

Cast your votes and make your voice heard. You dont need to go to a polling booth all you need to do is click. If you do not support commuter rail leave a comment with your reasons.

Good point, Use comments box to leave more details. Do mention if you arent already on one of the stations along the route would you shift along the commuter rail route if you have a good frequency commuter rail service. Here is the route map for reference.

Its nice to see not a single discordant note. I hope all will participate if we held a silent protest rally in favour of hastening commuter rail implementation. Will revert back with venue, date & time. Meanwhile please continue to vote if you havent already. 

In run upto a possible meeting with CM, it will good to have a poll with greater numbers to further the cause of CRS. We have about week or two for the meeting.

Therefore on behalf of Praja NR Team, I would like to request all the PRAJA members to pls vote here on for/Against CRS. Here is the link for that Poll.
