This railway station (
http://www.google.com/mapmaker?hl=en&fll=13.040671,80.269941&fr=0.000105,0.000107&mpp=0.290882&gw=39&ll=13.04142,80.270067&spn=0.002655,0.004689&t=k&z=18&iwloc=0_0&fid=4202533743265462139:12232334622461340263
) is under construction, but there seems to be no way to mark it as
such. Elsewhere I've seen options for completed/under construction/
planned. Why does it not appear here? Does this issue affect all
railway stations? Maybe other features too?

Is there any use to mark something under construction. Will it be better to add the POI after it is constructed.

Regards
CNR

He's probably thinking that after he maps that place in mapmaker it can take >6 months (and counting up) before it's in maps too.

I see that you have already added under construction under description. I would have suggested that due to the fact that its not possible to map a point of interest as under construction.

Also, the spelling for Koil has been entered as Koli. This translates temple in to a chicken. So have made that change now :)

Oh thanks. Of all the MRTS stations, this has by far the hardest
name. :-)

@CNR Nair: it can be useful to mark under-construction features, and
know about their existence, for various reasons. In this case, for
example, a first-time MRTS user who doesn't know what to expect might
wonder why the train is suddenly slowing down, and it may momentarily
throw off his/her number-of-stations-till-I-get-down count. Various
other lists of MRTS stations online list this station and mark it as
under construction too.
