टाटानगर-बरहमपुर वंदे भारत ट्रेन को नहीं मिल रहे यात्री

The Tatanagar-Berhampur Vande Bharat Express, launched on September 18th, is experiencing low passenger turnout despite the high demand for the Ranchi-Howrah and other routes. Despite offering empty seats daily, the train is being operated via Chaibasa, deviating from its original route via Hijili. The train's occupancy remains low, with only a...

few passengers boarding after Chaibasa, even though it stops at several stations. The train's route via Chaibasa and its timing, coinciding with the existing crowded express trains, are cited as possible reasons for the low ridership. Suggestions have been made to change the route to Hijili-Balasore to attract more passengers, similar to the popular Ranchi, Patna, and Rourkela routes.

Tatanagar-Berhampur Vande Bharat Express, 18 September ko launch hua, me yaatriyon ki kami hai, jabki Ranchi-Howrah aur dusre routes pe bheed hai. Train Chaibasa se hoke chal rahi hai, apna original route Hijili se change karke. Har din khali seats hai, lekin Chaibasa ke baad ...

kam hi log train me chadhte hai. Vande Bharat train ke timing aur route ko low ridership ka reason mana ja raha hai. Hijili-Balasore se hoke route change karne ka suggestion diya gaya hai, taaki Ranchi, Patna aur Rourkela jaise routes ki tarah ispe bhi bheed ho.

People in this route cannot afford the high price of such premium trains. Here Passenger trains, Memu trains and Intercity trains having General Unreserved Coaches are required.
