स्पेशल ट्रेन में यात्रियों से रेलवे वसूल रहा स्पेशल किराया... रफ्तार इतनी कि 24 घंटे में भी नहीं पहुंच रहीं

Indian Railways introduced special trains to ease passenger congestion, but instead, passengers face increased inconvenience. Despite paying higher fares, passengers aren't reaching their destinations on time due to delays in these special trains. These special trains are often delayed by 70-80% compared to regular trains. Passengers feel cheated as...

they are charged a 15-20% premium for these delayed special trains. The delays are attributed to prioritizing regular trains over special trains, resulting in special trains being held at stations and their punctuality dipping below 50%. Consequently, passengers opt for regular trains, even if it means paying extra for tatkal (last-minute) or premium tickets. The operating department is neglecting these special trains, leading to delays of up to 22-24 hours, with some trains like the 03418 Malda Town Special being delayed by 23-24 hours and the 01666 Kar train delayed by 11 hours. These delays lead to passenger frustration and empty seats on the special trains.

Indian Railways ne yaatriyon ki suvidha ke liye special trains chalaaye, par yaatriyon ko pareshani hi badhi hai. Jyada kiraya dene ke baad bhi, yaatri apne destination pe time pe nahin pahunch pa rahe hain, kyunki yeh special trains bahut late hain. Yeh special trains, normal trains se 70-80% tak...

late hain. Yaatri khud ko thaga hua mahsus kar rahe hain kyunki unhe in late special trains ke liye 15-20% zyada kiraya dena pad raha hai. Iska karan hai ki normal trains ko time pe chalaane ke liye, special trains ko delay kiya ja raha hai, aur yeh trains station pe ruk jaati hain, jisse inki punctuality 50% se kam ho gayi hai. Is wajah se, yaatri normal trains me hi reservation karne ki koshish karte hain, bhale hi unhe tatkal ya premium kiraya dena pade. Operating department in special trains ko ignore kar raha hai, jisse yeh trains 22-24 ghante tak late ho jaati hain. Jaise ki 03418 Malda Town Special train 23-24 ghante late chal rahi hai, aur 01666 Kar train 11 ghante late hai. Is wajah se yaatri bahut pareshan ho rahe hain aur special trains ki seats khali ja rahi hain.
