Pointing out that several considerations go into deciding whether a halt at a particular place should be provided or not, the bench held that the petitioner is left free to make a request to the General Manager of Southern Railway in line with the prayer made in the present petition.
"However, even if the request is declined, the decision may not be justiciable," the bench added while dismissing the PIL.
