But, the passenger trains from Erode to Mettur departure at 5.00 am and the passenger train from Erode to Trichy at 7.40 am, Erode to Trichy at 4.30 pm, Erode-Nellai at 1.00 pm, Erode-Palakkad at 7.40 am, Coimbatore-Salem and Coimbatore-Nagercoil
Express were not yet restored causing much hardship to the people as the bus fare was much high.
The trains were stopped for over 2 years in the name of Corona epidemic.
But, now, the epidemic was under control.
Therefore, the Railway Administration should take appropriate action immediately to help people.
Lest, the party would start series of stirs in front of Erode Railway Station, they added.
