Hello
The incident occurred near Tirur in Malappuram at around 10 pm on Sunday.
Considering that the Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) charges Rs 10 for a cup of tea, the availability of a snack meal at Rs 20 presents a great deal.
The service intended for the tourists will be operated by Princy World Travels in association with SRMPR Global Railways Private Limited, as part of the Indian Railways' Bharat Gaurav Yatra project.
The return service from Shoranur will also skip South Station.
Elaborate crowd control arrangements are made at all major and important railway stations.
The KSEB is supposed to supply electricity to the traction substation in Punalur.
The train that departs daily at 2.45 pm from Nilambur reaches Kottayam by 10 pm. Meanwhile, the same train begins the return journey at 5.15 next morning and reaches Nilambur by 11.45 am.
The traffic department says that it is impossible to allow a platform for the Vande Bharat train from 8 am to 1 pm.
Vande Bharat trains with a greater number of coaches might even reduce overcrowding.
Passengers’ associations point out that the authorities should focus on taking proper actions that would increase the speed of the trains on the tracks rather than just doing it on paper.
