(CRIS) confirmed delays in mail and superfast trains, with some experiencing delays of several hours. The Rourkela Bar Association highlighted the plight of passengers travelling within Odisha from Rourkela, noting delays in trains like Rajya Rani Express, Bhubaneswar-Rourkela Intercity Express, Tapaswini Express, and Samaleswari Express. With a high volume of trains passing through Rourkela junction daily, including passenger and freight trains, the railway infrastructure is overloaded. While the SER spokesperson acknowledged the traffic congestion and assured ongoing efforts to address the issue, the proposed East-West Dedicated Freight Corridor is yet to be implemented.

di jaati hai, jiske wajah se kaafi der tak train ruk jati hain. Center for Railway Information System (CRIS) ne bhi mail aur superfast trains me delays ki confirm kiya hai, aur kuchh trains to hours tak late chal rahi hain. Rourkela Bar Association ne Odisha se Rourkela jaane wale passengers ki mushkilon ko highlight kiya hai, aur unhone Rajya Rani Express, Bhubaneswar-Rourkela Intercity Express, Tapaswini Express, aur Samaleswari Express jaisi trains me bhi kaafi delay hone ki baat batayi hai. Rourkela junction se rozana kaafi zyada trains guzarti hain, jisme passenger trains aur freight trains bhi shamil hain, jiske wajah se railway infrastructure kaafi overloaded ho gaya hai. SER spokesperson ne traffic congestion ki baat maan li hai aur issue ko solve karne ke liye chal rahe efforts ke baare me bataya hai, lekin proposed East-West Dedicated Freight Corridor abhi tak start nahi hua hai.
