Union minister of state for railways V Somanna on January 16 proposed two new railway terminals near Bengaluru: Devanahalli and Nelamangala.

Currently, Bengaluru has three major railway terminals—KSR Bengaluru City, Yeswantpur, and Sir MV Terminal.

South Western Railway (SWR) is already planning a mega coaching terminal in Devanahalli, near Kempegowda International Airport. Somanna also proposed for a terminal in Nelamangala, near Tumakuru, his constituency, citing the need to reduce congestion at Bengaluru’s existing stations.
