Beed: The Railway Board has responded positively to the demand for the immediate launch of a daily Beed-Hadapsar (Pune) train service, MP Bajrang Sonawane said after meeting Railway Board Chairman and CEO Satish Kumar in New Delhi on Wednesday.

During the meeting, Sonawane submitted a memorandum seeking the early commencement of the daily Beed-Hadapsar train, the introduction of a separate Mumbai-Beed Express in view of rising passenger demand, and the establishment of goods sheds at Beed, Ashti and Narayandoh stations under the Ahilyanagar-Beed-Parli Vaijnath railway project.
