Railways to run two pairs of unreserved Udhna-Jaynagar trains for Diwali, Chhath

Railway has decided to run two pairs of unreserved weekly special trains between Udhna and Jaynagar during Diwali and Chhath Puja to help passengers travelling to Bihar. The special trains will depart from Udhna on 18 and 25 October.

The additional arrangement has been planned in view of the rise in passenger rush during the festive period. A large number of people travel from Gujarat and surrounding areas to their homes in Bihar during Diwali and Chhath Puja.

According to the railway’s plan, both pairs of special trains will leave Udhna on 18 and 25 October. The operation of these trains is expected to provide relief to passengers travelling to Bihar during the festivals.

The decision comes as regular trains see increasing pressure, particularly in terms of seats and general-category coaches. With the festive rush likely to add to the demand for travel, the additional services will provide another option for passengers.

The trains will be unreserved. This will make the service useful for passengers who travel in the general category. The unreserved special trains between Udhna and Jaynagar may prove particularly helpful for people travelling to Bihar during the festive period.

Passengers have been advised to confirm the travel date, train number, departure time, arrival time and details of the intermediate stations before leaving for their journey. They can check this information on the railway’s official website or through the NTES app.

Checking the schedule in advance will help passengers plan their journey and reach the station accordingly. It will also allow them to verify the operational details of the special services before travelling.

The available information does not include the train numbers, the arrival time at Jaynagar or the details of the intermediate stations. These details must therefore be confirmed from the railway’s official timetable before the journey.

The special train arrangement is part of the railway’s additional passenger facility plan for the Diwali and Chhath Puja period. The services are intended to offer an alternative to passengers facing heavy crowds in regular trains while travelling between Udhna and Jaynagar.
