The 10Km stretch connects Mandhana Jn to Brahmvart(Bithoor) lies under Izzatnagar division of NER in Kanpur District since 1885 at the bank of river GANGA.

if you can see the IR map the entire stretch b/w Mandhana Jn & Brahmavart is not shown.
Reason - there is no train service is active on this stretch.
About 10 years ago when Kanpur - Farukhabad line converted into BG this stretch didn't closed & railways started the Rail Bus service on...now presently running on Mathura - Brindavan section.
But later on
...
more...
due to non-profitable reasons they abandoned the entire service & stretch.
Many ministers came & said the line gets started soon, but nothing has been done till date.
Lalu Yadav former RM also laid the stone for GC during his period, but no work done.
People protested again and again...on 4-March-2014 again by teleconferencing GC stone laid (pic attached above), but no work has been started yet.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake.
