Beacuse pnme is not an experimental 6 months old halt.....it has been there since last 12 years.... suddenly all the ER n some ser members started demanding its removal after asn getting halt....when u call pnme a political halt same goes for asn....it's because of your powerful mp babul supriyo that the halt got sanctioned....I am sure if Suresh Prabhu was rm he would have never accepted this....u should cherish asn getting halt but not at the cost of demeaning pnme....as simple....I was not affected by asn halt till the time there started hell lot of railfans demanding pnme removed.....that made me vote against asn everywhere.... rajdhanis are less about patronage n more about speed....wats done with pnme given halt shouldn't have been repeated with asn...now if you justify it's halt with patronage then there are many other station like burdwan, durgapur,ssm,aligarh which can give similar patronage...wat about them??
