Erode District Congress Minority Wing distributed sweets to passengers at Erode railway station as a mark of celebrating restoration of Erode-Trichy passenger train service after 2 and a half years gap.
It was suspended due to corona pandemic. Many pleas were made by the wing president J Suresh, vice presidents KN Batcha and MM Harshad to the Union Railway
Minister and Railway Officials regarding restoration
of the passenger train service from Erode to
