At @nalanda_univ, began Sunday morning with an unscheduled interaction with the students, at their request and organised at their initiative. The vice-chancellor attended and chaired. The students’ questions (as well as their turnout on a Sunday morning!) were very impressive and augured well for the rest of my time at Nalanda.

A great achievement for IR's heritage preservation. Kudos to all who were behind this initiative.

@UNESCO @AshwiniVaishnaw @drm_umb @RailwayNorthern @CproNr @RailMadad this is a major malpractice on a heritage line. Kindly look into this.

[Aishik Chanda @WDP4_NFR_MLDT]

The excitement turned into sheer horror, as @AshwiniVaishnaw keeps looting us more and more!
CC fare for KSR end to end was 265rs, I took it thinking to get a comfortable coach to catch up with some sleep.
Guess what? They're using simple GS coaches as CC coaches with a C board.

Letting 14571 to face the cutter's torch would be a signifcant blow to our ALCo heritage and innovations from the 20th century. Requesting @SCRailwayIndia @RailMinIndia @drmsecunderabad @AshwiniVaishnaw to kindly come upfront and save this piece of ALCo heritage.

A thread with an URGENT APPEAL TO @RailMinIndia @gmscrailway @SCRailwayIndia @AshwiniVaishnaw
We railfans urge the Ministry of Railways to SAVE LOCOMOTIVE NO. 14571, the last surviving "Baldie" WDG 3A locomotive which holds immense heritage value. 🙏 #Save14571 #SaveHeritage

[Anmol Ezra Shah @_anmorak_]

We still have some time to prioritise our railway heritage. @AshwiniVaishnaw @RailMinIndia kindly act upon it before its too late.

Save WAP5 "30000" Save Indian Railways Heritage🙏🏻

Dear officials, as per sources, the first WAP-5 locomotive, i.e. №30000 is being taken to the CLW factory to undergo conversion to Amrit Bharat WAP5 along with many other WAP5 locomotives.

If this holds true, we request you to hold and revert the conversion plan for WAP5 №30000, as it is the first locomotive of the WAP5 series and historically very important. When the first WAP-5 arrived in India in 1995 along with WAG9, it marked the start of a new era with the introduction of such new modern-age locomotives.

The first of its kind is always a special one and holds a special place in everyone's heart. WAP5 №30000 too holds a special place in everyone's heart, and hence we are requesting to retain the original design and livery of WAP-5 on №30000.

kindly look into this. Destroying an almost 160-year old building like this is totally unacceptable.

[Dev Kumar Vasudevan @dkvmhw]

Raksha Mantri ji kindly stop the demolition of the historic (1866 built) heritage building of the Army Public School building in Mhow Cantt. It's in very good condition. Its loss would truly be irreparable. @DefMinIndia @adgpi @suryacommand @ASIGoI @Intach_AH @IndoreCollector

While travelling onboard the 02439 Ranchi-Patna Vande Bharat Inaugural Special, I got to interact with the students of Kendriya Vidyalaya, Hinoo, Ranchi. Being an ex-KVian myself it was a pleasure meeting these students.

@gaya_dm @GayaMunicipal क्या यही आपका स्वच्छ भारत अभियान है? गया के गाँधी मैदान में स्थित St. David's Church/Baptist Union Church के ठीक बगल में कूड़ा फेंका जा रहा है। किसी भी धार्मिक स्थल के बगल में ऐसे कूड़ा फेंकना उसकी मर्यादा का हनन है। कृपया इसे हटाने का कष्ट करें।

[Anmol Ezra Shah @_anmorak_]

@RailwaySeva Thanks for this. I hope that the bedroll service in the aforementioned train begins soon.

[Anmol Ezra Shah @_anmorak_]

@DRM_DDU @GM_ECRly @RailMinIndia @RailMadad Kindly specify if the bedroll facility is available in 12397/98 Mahabodhi Express. If not, then kindly specify the tentative date for the resumption of the bedroll facility. Thanks.
