स्पेशल ट्रेनों में किराया ज्यादा, लेटलतीफी के चलते यात्री हो रहे परेशाान

During the festive season, the Indian Railways ran many special trains to accommodate the increased passenger traffic. However, passengers are facing difficulties as these special trains are being held at intermediate stations for 15 to 30 minutes, causing delays and disrupting schedules. The demand for sleeper class tickets on these trains...

is very high, and general class coaches are overcrowded. The situation worsened on Sunday as people returning from Diwali celebrations and those traveling for Chhath Puja created a surge in passenger numbers. The railway has introduced special trains for the Diwali and Chhath festivities, with over 6000 trains running nationwide, including more than 100 special trains with halts at various stations in the PNR zone. However, these special trains have increased fares by 15 to 30 percent, and their timing is inconvenient for many passengers. Passengers also complain that the railway did not add extra coaches to these trains, exacerbating the crowding problem. The timing of these special trains is not convenient, and they are being held at various points along the routes, causing delays of 15 to 30 minutes. This has led to significant inconvenience for passengers. The current situation is expected to last until November 5th. Several trains are facing high waitlists and even regrets, including the Kushinagar Express, Mumbai Central Barouni Special, Sachkhand Express, Malwa Express, Mangala Lakshadweep Express, Bandra Terminus Gorakhpur Special, Gorakhpur Panvel Express, Chhattisgarh Express, Bhopal Express, Kamayani Express, Kerala Superfast Express, Amarakantak Express, Punjab Mail, and Panvel Gorakhpur Express.

Festivals ke time par, Indian Railways ne passengers ki suvidha ke liye bahut saari special trains chalaayi hain. Lekin, passengers ko pareshani ka saamna karna pad raha hai kyunki yeh special trains beech ke stations par 15 se 30 minutes tak ruk jaati hain. Isse trains time pe nahi pahunch paa...

rahi hain. Sleeper class ke tickets ki demand bahut zyada hai, aur general class mein bhi jagah nahin hai. Sunday ko yeh situation aur bhi buri ho gayi kyunki Diwali par ghar gae log bhaai dooj ke baad vapas aa rahe the, aur Chhath Puja ke liye bhi log bahut saare ghar ja rahe the. Isse trains mein rush do guna badh gaya hai. Station par bheed dekh kar yeh baat saaf pata chalti hai. Railways ne is saal Diwali aur Chhath festivals ke liye deshbhar mein 6000 se zyada trains chalaayi hain. Ismein 100 se zyada special trains hain jo PNR zone ke alag alag stations par halt le kar chal rahi hain. Lekin yeh trains me 15 se 30 percent tak zyada fare dena pad raha hai. In trains ki timing bhi passengers ko pasand nahi aa rahi. Passengers ne bataya ki is saal railways ne trains mein extra coaches nahi lagaye. Isse passengers ko bahut pareshani ho rahi hai. Railways ne jo special trains chalaayi hain unki timing sahi nahi hai aur beech raste mein kai jagah pe yeh trains 15 se 30 minutes tak ruk jaati hain. Isse bahut pareshani ho rahi hai. Trains ki yeh situation 5 November tak rahegi. Kuchh trains me bahut zyada waitlist hai aur kuchh me to regret bhi a raha hai. Isme Kushinagar Express, Mumbai Central Barouni Special, Sachkhand Express, Malwa Express, Mangala Lakshadweep Express, Bandra Terminus Gorakhpur Special, Gorakhpur Panvel Express, Chhattisgarh Express, Bhopal Express, Kamayani Express, Kerala Superfast Express, Amarakantak Express, Punjab Mail, aur Panvel Gorakhpur Express bhi shamil hain.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
