I am SSC school teacher of garalgacha High school near Dankuni. I stay at my uncle's house at Satragachi. I travel from Satragachi to Dankuni daily. Local train takes 30 minutes from Satragachi to Howrah. I spend 5 minutes for changing train from SER section to ER section at Howrah. Local train takes 25 minutes from Howrah to Dankuni. It means that my total travelling time is 1 hour. But practically I have to spend near about 2 hours from Satragachi to Dankuni due to non-availability of Chord Local and signal problem near Tikiapara. Total distance from Satragachi to Howrah is 7 km, Howrah to Dankuni is 15 km. Satragachi to dankuni is total 22 km. This 22 km destination takes 2 hours. Recently ACC Rail-link is opened for passenger train. Sealdah - Puri duronto moves via ACCL. ACC Link is very short route and movement is very smooth. So...
