Railways To Run 200 Non-AC Trains Daily From June 1, Online Bookings Soon

In a tweet today, the Railways said, "Apart from these Shramik Special trains, Indian Railways is going to run 200 additional time table trains daily from June 1."

New Delhi: 

Passenger train service will expand from the existing 15 trains to more than 200 starting next month. The service will involve non-air conditioned trains, which had not been allowed so far. The 15 trains that have been running since May 12, are air-conditioned trains and the passengers are required to maintain rules of social distancing and use masks and sanitisers.

In a tweet today, the Railways said apart from the Shramik Special trains, it would run "200 additional timetable trains daily from June 1, which will be non-air conditioned second class trains and booking of these trains will be available online".  

Information on the trains will be made available soon, the Railways said.

The Railways had hinted at the move last week, saying it would begin issuing waitlisted tickets from May 22. The order, it said, applies not just to the 15 existing trains, but also "those that will be notified in due course of time".

The decision comes days after the Centre extended the countrywide lock down for a third time but lifted the bar on bus service and other public transport. The final decision in terms of implementation was left to the states.

It also marks a step forward in the tussle with some states over the running of special trains for migrants. Claiming that some states are denying permission for incoming special trains carrying migrants, the Centre had scrapped the mandatory requirement that states receiving migrants approve the transfer.

The move had created room for a face-off with states like Bihar and Karnataka, which have said that incoming migrants were spreading the infection.

Before the lock down, the railways operated around 12,000 trains every day. Since May 1, it ran 366 special trains for migrant workers from different corners of the country.

New Delhi, May 19

These trains will have non-air conditioned second class coaches and will run daily.

They will be plied in addition to the Shramik Special and the air-conditioned special trains which are currently being operated on the Rajdhani routes connecting 15 major cities to Delhi.

All categories of passengers will be allowed to book tickets which will be available online.

“Indian Railways will run 200 non-AC trains daily as per the time table from June 1, whose online booking will start soon,” tweeted Railway Minister Piyush Goyal.

While the railways is yet to state which routes these trains will run on, officials said they could cater to the smaller towns and cities.

 

Earlier, the railways had cancelled all its regular passenger services till June 30.

Railways said the move to start these 200 trains would also be helpful for migrants who can avail these trains if they are unable to board the Shramik Special trains.

“Efforts will be made such that they (migrants) will be able to board trains from   Railway Station Head on mainline which is close to their existing location,” the railways said.

The railways also said it has asked the state governments to identify and locate the migrants who are walking on roads to go to their home states and transport them to the nearest main line railway station after registering them the nearest district headquarters. It has also asked the states to give a list of these travelers to the Railway Authorities so that arrangements can be made for their further travel through Shramik specials. — PTI
