The last festive season from Dussehra to Chhath has been very bad for Indian Railways. Now the picture is expected to change by running special trains for railways in the festive season due to less outbreak of corona epidemic and record covid vaccination.
New Delhi. In view of the festivals, soon the festival special trains will be announced by the Indian Railways. Railways can run 1500 festival special trains from 10 October to 21 November in view of the increasing rush due to festivals. However, in normal days or before the corona epidemic, this figure used to cross 5,000. Actually, Kovid-19 has had a very bad effect on Indian Railways. For a long time, there is a constant shortage of passengers in the railways.
Big reason for not announcing special trains yet
The last festive season from Dussehra to Chhath has also been very bad for Indian Railways. It has been seen that many people are preferring to use private vehicles for the journey of 8-10 hours. Due to the reduced outbreak of corona epidemic and record covid vaccination, now the picture may change for the railways in the festive season. The Railways hopes that along with the festivals, the old luster can return once again in the trains. At the same time, the festival of Dussehra is starting from October 7, but till now there is a big reason behind not announcing the special trains of the season. According to the source, there is a lot of pressure on the railways to run goods trains.
There is also increased pressure on railways to run goods trains
The dire need of coal in power plants across the country has increased the pressure of running goods trains. The highest demand for trains from Dussehra to Chhath is for eastern India. At the same time, coal supply is highest from states like Jharkhand and West Bengal of eastern India. In such a situation, who should be given priority on the railway line, it has deepened the crisis. However, it is expected that this problem will be resolved in the coming day or two. Along with this, special trains will be announced by the Railways.
