Chhath Puja Special Trains:- With the Diwali festival now over, people are eagerly awaiting Chhath Puja. Many travel home for this occasion, leading to significant crowding on trains bound for Uttar Pradesh and Bihar. During the Diwali and Chhath Puja period, securing tickets for buses, flights, or trains becomes difficult, and airfares often soar. Consequently, most people prefer to travel by train. To ensure a smooth travel experience, Indian Railways operates a large number of special trains every year.
If you are also planning to head home for Chhath Puja, this is a great opportunity. Expect heavy rushes on trains two to three days before the festival, as a large number of people travel home to celebrate.
