He also requested the Union Railway Minister, Ashwini Vaishnaw, to intervene and withdraw these orders with immediate effect.
In this regard, he has sent a letter to the railway minister saying that he was shocked to know about the Railway Board’s decision. He further says that he doesn’t know the need for this change in nomenclature while people are very comfortable with the same in their regional languages throughout the country.
He also mentioned that apart from practical difficulties, this decision is a contravention of the Official Language Implementation rules 1976.
