Mahakumbh Mela: महाकुंभ में बसों की तरह ट्रेनों के अंदर मिलेंगे रेल टिकट, टिकट काउंटर पर नहीं लगाई पड़ेगी लाइन

across India and abroad, particularly by train, the Railways is making various arrangements to enhance passenger convenience. These arrangements include running several special trains during the mela. Recognizing the potential crowd surge at stations during the bathing festivals, the Railways has decided to provide unreserved tickets inside general coaches or mela special trains. This initiative aims to streamline the ticketing process and improve the overall travel experience for pilgrims.

Aane wala Maha Kumbh Mela ke dauraan, Indian Railways ek nayi system lagaane wala hai jisse unreserved tickets train ke andar hi mil jayenge, jaise road transport buses mein hota hai.

Isse ticketing process smooth ho jaayega aur pilgrims ka travel experience behtar ho jaayega.

महाकुम्भ में जंक्शन पर आरक्षित टिकट वालों को अलग से मिलेगा प्रवेश

During the Kumbh Mela 2025 in Prayagraj, separate pathways will be designated for reserved and unreserved ticket holders at Prayagraj Junction. This is the first time the railways will be implementing this arrangement, aiming to provide a dedicated passenger shelter for reserved ticket holders. In the previous Kumbh, all passengers, including...

reserved ticket holders, were directed to the same four passenger shelters, causing inconvenience. Reserved ticket holders faced difficulties entering the station due to overcrowding, often missing their trains. To address this, the North Central Railway administration is creating a separate passenger shelter specifically for reserved ticket holders to facilitate smooth entry into the station.

Prayagraj mein Maha Kumbh 2025 ke dauraan, Prayagraj Junction se train pakadne ke liye reserved aur unreserved ticket holders ke raaste bilkul alag honge. Pehli baar railway yeh vyavastha karne ja raha hai. Iske tahat ek alag passenger shelter hoga, jisse reserved passengers ko pravesh diya jaayega. Pichhle Kumbh ke dauraan...

Prayagraj Junction par banaaye gaye char passenger shelters se hi sabhi passengers ko pravesh diya ja raha tha. Reserved ticket holders ko vishesh paristhitiyon mein officers rest house se pravesh diya gaya tha. Isse regular train se safar karne wale musafirons ko bahut pareshani hui. Regular train mein reservation karaane wale passengers ki shikayat yeh thi ki unhen samay par pravesh nahin mil pata. Bheed zyada hone ke karan kai baar train chhutne ki sthiti ho jati thi, jis ke baad Uttar Madhy Railway prashasan ne iske liye alag se taiyari ki hai. Passenger shelters ke atirikt ek alag passenger shelter banaya jaayega, jisse regular reservation wale musafirons ko sahajta se station mein pravesh mil sakega.
