Mr Lalit Jain's request letter in Karnataka State Industrial Times at Page No 16 of Nov 2010 edition for Local Trains :
The first phase of the Sompura Industrial Estate which has come up on 800 acres, at Nidvanda, in Thyamgondulu village. Near Dobaspet another 400 acres will shortly be acquired. Nidvanda village has a good railway station, but the problem is that only passenger trains like the Bangalore-Tumkur push pull and a few other trains stop here. Their timings are also not helpful to those traveling to this area.

So here you can see how Industries will get benifit if we have Commuter Rail. Similarly Dodballapur Textile Industries, ITPL, Malur Industrial Belt, Anekal-Hosur, Devanhalli, Yelahanaka,

With ITR coming up arround Devanhalli & Textile Park near Dodballapur, Commuter rail will make difference in travelling between these places to Bangalore city.
Industrial Hub at Nidvanda
I was travelling back to Bangalore this morning from Tumkur, then observed the Industrial belt at Nidvanda.
Its massive Industiry hub is coming up, most of the companies are giving final shape to the Factories at Nidavanda. Station is across the road from Industrial Hub. So people need to travell from Tumkur and Bangalore to this area. This hub needs good Commuter Rail connectivity similar to Dodballapur, Bidadi, Chandapur, Malur, ITBP.
Then only the planned Industrial hubs will attract quality work force at affordable salary.
