To accommodate the festive season rush, Indian Railways will be running special trains for the Diwali and Chhath Puja seasons.
Chhath Puja and Diwali are two festivals of great significance in the state of Bihar, and people working in different states tend to travel home during this time to spend the holidays with their families. This leads to a huge festival season rush in public transports, leading to not everyone getting a train ticket.
To accommodate the festival rush in travel which comes with Diwali and Chhath Puja, the Indian Railways has announced several special trains running from Delhi to different parts of Bihar. The trains will be travelling to the Muzaffarpur, Darbhanga, Barauni, Saharsa and Jaynagar stations of Bihar.
The trains will run from the Anand Vihar and New Delhi railway stations in Delhi, and all the passengers travelling in these special festival trains will have to follow the COVID-19 guidelines. The details of the trains are mentioned below.
