Text of email petition to Chief Minister of Karnataka, asking for Commuter Rail to be implemented in Bengaluru.

1. To:
The Chief Minister,
Government of Karnataka
Bengaluru – 560001
Sir,
Subject – Petition for introducing Commuter Rail Service in
Bengaluru
I, a citizen of Bengaluru City , hereby petition you for introducing the
'Commuter Rail Service' (CRS) in Bengaluru as proposed in the recently submitted
RITES report to the Department of Urban Land Transport.
As you must be aware that, our city of Bengaluru has exhausted all other Mass
Transit options to meet the growing size of the daily commuters. It is time we
stem the growth of Bengaluru city and disperse it to adjoining towns of Mandya,
Ramangaram, Dodadballapur, Chikballpur, Anekal, Malur, Hosur, and Bangarpet. The
option of using Commuter Rail Service in Bengaluru will serve this purpose. As
RITES has recorded in its report 'Implementation of Commuter Rail for Bengaluru,
CRS if implemented in its entirety can take care of the Bengaluru's 50% transit
load. Implementing CRS will be very economical compare to any other mass transit
systems. With the CRS running in Bengaluru, every section of the society will
benefit immensely. Commuter Rail will not only help decongest city roads but
will also sprucing up of the railway infrastructure in the city and its
surroundings.
Different sections of population will be benefit from the commuter rail service
are:
Factory Workers
Students and Teachers
Office/Business Employees
IT Employees
Health Care Employees
Patients
Merchants and Business Owners
Given this potential and urgent need for the commuter rail service, hereby I
request you to start this service immediately. Introduction of this service will
greatly help Bengaluru city in decongestion and providing relief to the
commuters.
