Puttur-Subrahmanya Railway Users’ Association has lent its support to passengers requesting Indian Railways to develop a full-fledged railway station in Kaniyooru town, in Kadaba taluk of Dakshina Kannada district of Karnataka, by relocating the existing halt station about 1 km to the east at Yeladka.
Kaniyooru on the Manjeshwar-Puttur-Subrahmanya State Highway is the pivot for about 25 villages in Sullia, Kadaba and Puttur taluks, including Belandooru, Savanooru, Bellare, Kalmadka, Balila, Ninthikallu and Charvaka. Developing a full-fledged station abutting the State Highway would serve a large populace, according to the association.
