The Satsang will be held at the Major Center of Radha Swami Satsang Bhawan from March 8th to March 10th. A large number of devotees come from Haryana, Punjab, Himachal Pradesh, and other states to attend the Satsang. As in previous years, approval has been granted for the stopping of mail and express trains at Sarsawa station this year as well. In anticipation of the influx of passengers traveling home for Holi, the railway has decided to operate two Holi Special trains between Lucknow and Banaras. These trains will operate four rounds in each direction between March 21st and March 24th. Additionally, there will be five round trips from Delhi to Varanasi via Lucknow. Bookings for these trains have opened immediately. * 04249 Holi Special departs from Banaras at 6:25 AM, reaching Lucknow at 12:25 PM via Jaunpur, Shahganj, Akbarpur, Ayodhya Dham, and Barabanki. The return journey departs from Lucknow at 4:35 PM, arriving in Banaras at 10:35 PM. * 04080 Holi Special departs from Delhi every Monday, Thursday, and Saturday at 7:30 PM, reaching Banaras at 9:45 AM via Ghaziabad, Moradabad, Alamanagar, and Lucknow, with a stop in Lucknow at 3:30 AM.
