बिहार को जल्द मिलेगी एक और अमृत भारत ट्रेन, रेलवे ने सोनपुर मंडल को भेजा प्रस्ताव

There are currently no superfast express trains running directly from Chhapra to Delhi. The Chhapra Varanasi division is the second highest revenue generating station in the region. However, a new 'Amrit Bharat' train might soon be introduced on the Chhapra - Delhi route. This proposal came after social worker Sandeep Pandey...

raised the need for more trains connecting Chhapra/Sonpur to Delhi. The request for an Ambika Bhavani Superfast Express, Amrit Bharat Express, and Antyodaya Express connecting these cities was sent to the Railway Board by the Varanasi and Sonpur division's railway management offices. This is being considered as residents of Saran district struggle to find reserved seats on existing trains and even unreserved coaches are overcrowded. The Amrit Bharat Express is a superfast express service offered by Indian Railways. It is a non-AC sleeper and unreserved category train, designed for the common people. It consists of 22 coaches including 12 sleeper coaches, 8 general coaches, and 2 SLR coaches. Its maximum operational speed is 110-130 km/hr.

Chhapra se Delhi ke liye abhi koi bhi superfast express train nahi hai. Chhapra Varanasi division, area mein dusra sabse zyada revenue generating station hai. Lekin jaldi hi Chhapra se Delhi ke liye ek nayi 'Amrit Bharat' train shuru ho sakti hai. Yeh proposal social worker Sandeep Pandey ki maang ke...

baad aaya hai, unhone Chhapra/Sonpur se Delhi tak jaane wali zyada trains ki demand ki thi. Ambika Bhavani Superfast Express, Amrit Bharat Express aur Antyodaya Express chalaane ka proposal Varanasi aur Sonpur division ke railway management offices ne Railway Board ko bheja hai. Yeh proposal isliye aaya hai kyunki Saran district ke logo ko existing trains mein reserved seats milna mushkil hota hai aur unreserved coaches bhi bahut bhari hota hai. Amrit Bharat Express, Indian Railways ki ek superfast express service hai. Ye ek non-AC sleeper aur unreserved category train hai, jisko common logo ke liye banaya gaya hai. Is train set mein 12 sleeper coaches, 8 general coaches aur 2 SLR coaches, total 22 coaches hain. Iski maximum operational speed 110-130 km/hr hai.

The Kaptanganj-Thawe rail line in Uttar Pradesh, India, converted to broad gauge in 2011, still lacks adequate long-distance train services.

like Delhi, Mumbai, and Kolkata, causing inconvenience. Although special trains operate during festivals, local residents demand regular long-distance train services. They have repeatedly petitioned authorities, but their pleas have been ignored. Recently, however, representatives from the region requested the railway minister to extend the route of an existing long-distance express train on the Gorakhpur-Siwan route via Deoria to include Kaptanganj-Thawe. Positive results are expected soon.

Uttar Pradesh mein Kaptanganj-Thawe rail line, jisko 2011 mein broad gauge mein badla gaya tha, abhi bhi proper long-distance train services nahi hai. Connection improve hone ka promise ke baavajood, is route pe sirf ek express train, Lucknow-Chhapra Express, chalta hai. Passengers ko Kaptanganj ya Gorakhpur Junction jaana padta hai Delhi,...
