Supporters of renaming Mumbai Central Terminus after railway pioneer Jagannath Shankarsheth have announced a protest outside the station on April 16. They’ve given authorities a deadline of July 31—Shankarsheth’s death anniversary—after which they plan to escalate their agitation.

Though both the Railway Ministry and the Maharashtra government have formally approved the renaming, the proposal remains stalled with the Union Home Department. “It was due to Nana Jagannath Shankarsheth’s efforts that the railways came to India. The British even honoured him by embedding his bust in the structure of the iconic Mumbai CSMT building, acknowledging his role as director of the first railway company. What more proof is needed?” said Manmohan Chonkar of the Jagannath Shankarsheth’s Namkaran Sangharsh Samiti.
