This rush is primarily due to bagheshwar dham pilgrims , some from surrounding areas like chhatarpur and some from actual khajuraho,because frankly speaking before covid like 3,4 years back raat mein kurj pe 1,2 passenger ka milna bhi mushkil tha because trains hi nahi thi akhiri train upsk hua karti thi but ab raat mein bhi kaafi passengers mil jate hai , food facilities thodi toh improve hui hai but abhi bhi fully cooked meals nahi available hai station pe but pehle 1 food stall hi tha pf 1 par but aaj pf 1 par 2 food stalls aur pf 2,3 par 2 food stalls ho gye hai. Pax ka difference itna hai ki covid ke pehle udz kurj ke ac aur Even sl coaches bhi fully empty jaya karte the till mba but aaj even ac coaches bhi 10 to 20% occupancy pe chalte hai from kurj only.
please wait...Translate to EnglishLots of people are rushing to Bagheswar Dham because of the pilgrims, some from nearby areas like Chhatarpur and some from Khajuraho itself. Earlier, like 3-4 years ago, it was difficult to find even 1-2 passengers at Kurj station at night because there were no trains available, except for the last UPSK train. But nowadays, we can find quite a few passengers even at night. Food facilities have improved a bit, but fully cooked meals are still not available at the station. Earlier, there was only one food stall on platform 1, but now we have two food stalls on platform 1 and two on platforms 2 and 3. The difference in the number of passengers is that before Covid, even AC and SL coaches of UDZ-Kurj trains used to go fully empty until MBA, but nowadays, even AC coaches run at 10-20% occupancy from Kurj only.
please wait...Translate to HindiYe jhatka khaas kar bagheshwar dham pilgrims ke kaaran hai, kuchh chhatarpur aur khajuraho jaise paas ke ilaqon se bhi aate hain. Sach bataun to covid ke pehle 3-4 saal pehle raat mein Kurj se 1-2 passenger milna bhi mushkil tha kyunki akhiri train UPSK jati thi. Par ab raat mein bhi kaafi passengers milte hain, khana facility thodi improve hui hai lekin abhi bhi fully cooked meals station pe available nahi hain, par pehle ek food stall bas tha PF1 par ab PF1 par 2 food stalls aur PF2 aur 3 par bhi 2 food stalls hai. Pax kaafi fark hota hai, covid se pehle UDZ Kurj ke ac aur SL coaches bhi fully empty chalte the till MBA par aajkal ac coaches bhi 10 to 20% occupancy pe chalte hai from Kurj hi.
