Kohima: Nagaland Lok Sabha MP S Supongmeren Jamir toured the Railway Ticket Counter at the NST station in Kohima on August 27. He demanded immediate equipment upgrades and a hike in the state railway reservation quota. The capital serves as a busy transit hub for many passengers.
Jamir insisted that locals should not struggle to secure bookings or access services. The current setup is functional but outdated. He plans to meet with railway authorities in Dimapur on August 28 to push for these infrastructure improvements.
The MP emphasized the need for more seats for local travelers. He stated, "We have very less quotas, or it's just nominal only. So we also need to increase our reservation quota."
He expects the Centre to back these changes, citing the state's solid record on revenue generation. Jamir promised to bring the issue to Parliament during the winter session if the Railway Ministry fails to address these concerns. He remains firm on his goal to secure better access for the public.
