Do not do so. The official name of the station is SIVAJINAGAR only. Please check the official website of railways before giving wrong suggestions.

i don't understand why we have to slavishly follow what is in the official website. In many cases, the spellings in the official website are flat out wrong. They really do not do spellchecks and other qa measures with their spellings. you can go to any timetable on the official website, and you will find that I am correct. Not only that, the spellings are inconsistent for the same station!!!
in the case of Shivajinagar, this is the official spelling of the city. You can go to the Wikipedia article and verify en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shivajinagar,_Pune You may even verify from other encyclopedia sources. Also, maybe, the name at the railway station says "Shivajinagar". In all probability, only in the official website, the name is

wrong. Why? They don't care!!! Even if it says 'Sivajinagar' in the official website, they should change it, since that is not the official name of the place.
Through this website, we, the public who care, are given a chance to ensure quality with names of trains and cities. i have browsed through the forum, and found hundreds of instances where people suggest proper names of stations, because what is in the official website is flat out wrong.
finally, in conclusion, mr. mst, let's do what is RIGHT, not what it says on the official website. please, I hope you take my comments in the right spirit.

Mr MST is right because if you post the name of the station with the 'correct' spelling, passengers using the forum may NOt be able to locate the station on the site, since it is linked to the official website. Try Shivajinagar on www.indiarail.gov.in and then come back and advise please.

@all others :
This calls for one time exercise (to update the spellings of all railway stations, train names) to be undertaken by the Rail Mantralaya's concerned deptt. One time exercise bcoz station names are not changed frequently.
All email ids are available on the RTI section of the IR official website of all deptts of Rlys and hence email follow up is possible. There is nothing for Rlys to loose in this case and hence there will definitely be positive response.

    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. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
