Successful Ticket Checking Campaign
In response to instructions from the Commerce Department officials of Railways, a ticket checking campaign was conducted in October.
The ticket checking staff at Bareilly Junction took action against passengers who booked tickets and luggage without proper authorization.
As a result of this campaign, the staff earned a substantial amount in fines, totaling in lakhs of rupees. These fines were collected both at the junction and inside the trains.
Overcrowding in Trains from Delhi
Trains arriving from Delhi, such as Avadh Assam Express and Jammu Tawi Express, are experiencing an unusually high number of passengers.
This overcrowding is causing significant challenges for travelers. The heavy rush in these trains is making the journey difficult for passengers, leading to inconvenience during their travels.
