If ever the railway line reaches the other Murud (of Murud - Janjira fame near Mumbai), one of the two or both will have to be renamed, just like Gandhinagar (Jaipur) and Gandhinagar Capital.

This place must have looked amazing in its heyday. Nice architecture of the station building... sadly counting its last days before being vandalized by humans and Nature alike!
