The upgraded railway station at Ashokapuram in Mysuru will be inaugurated on Monday in a move that will help augment train services.
Built at a cost of ₹32.5 crore, it will also help decongest the main Mysuru station and enable the authorities to conceive the introduction of additional services on key routes like Mysuru-Bengaluru and Mysuru-Hassan besides redistribution of passenger traffic flow.
Mysuru MP Pratap Simha will inaugurate the facilities at 11.30 a.m. that includes additional platforms, new second entry, and expanded parking facilities that can accommodate the projected increase in passenger volume.
