Gauge Conversion of Railway line From Jetalsar Junction to Dhasa Junction
Since a long time it is pending people of saurastra, Amreli district and Rajkot district, wrote a several letter to Bhavnagar division and Rajkot division for the conversion of the old Meter gauge line to broad gauge line. Jetalsar Junction to Dhasa Junction nearly 95-100 kilometer distance are remained to convert meter gauge line to Broad gauge. Since 1990 our urgent requirement is to convert old meter gauge line from Jetalsar Junction to Dhasa Junction.

. particularly in long journy. People have to change train from meter gauge to broad gauge at three station. Traveling from Jetalsar to Bhavnagar Or Veraval to Bhavnagar and even Bhavnagar terminus to Dhasa Junction, no direct train is available because of the meter gauge section from Dhasa to Jetalsar. To go Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai Hyderabad, kolkata and Hridwari is not possible through train but we have to change the train from three to four station.
Due to the meter gauge section transportation of goods are costly and time consuming. Privet busses and state transportation charges are too much costly and poor people only suffering. Day by day petrol price and diesel price going up and road transportation charges going up. Burden increases only on poor head.
it time consuming and wastage of money. Because of this meter gauge portion, to start direct and long distance trains are not possible. Saurastra and other district of Gujarat are ahead in business and industrial status. Both railways and Indian people can get benefits of this project. Therefore, we all saurastra peoples are requested to add in the next rail budget i.e 20011-2012 railway budget. If it possible, Please send draft proposal to railway mantralay or, and others, who can support the above work. Please try to note the point and send the draft proposal to railway mantralay or direct to MAMATA BENERAJI for fund to GC of Dhasa-Jetasar line
we all peoples are waiting for this line only to get direct train fron veraval Bhavnagr and porbandar, AHMEDABAD & all over the INDIA.
Thanking you all railway officer who can support the project.
