There is great news for railway passengers. Travel in 563 local trains running under Northern Railway including Delhi is going to become cheaper from July 1. Currently, the minimum fare in these trains is Rs 30. From July 1, passengers will be able to travel at a minimum fare of Rs 10.
A list of trains has been issued from the Northern Railway Headquarters, instructing the officials of the five divisions. The minimum fare in local trains running before Covid was only Rs 10. During Covid, the Railways had stopped operating these trains. After Corona, when the trains started operating again, the numbers of these trains were changed and they were run as special trains, but the minimum fare in these trains was made Rs 30 instead of Rs 10. In February, the Railways changed the numbers of some of these trains and made the minimum fare Rs 10, but the numbers of most trains were not changed.
After the Lok Sabha elections are over, the Northern Railway Headquarters has released a list of 563 such trains whose numbers are being changed. These trains will now run on the numbers they had before Corona. The biggest benefit of this will be to daily commuters and they will be able to travel at a lower fare. This information and list of trains has been sent by the Northern Railway Headquarters to Delhi, Moradabad, Firozpur, Lucknow and Ambala divisions.
Daily commuters were making demands from the railways
Balkrishna Amarsaria, associated with the Daily Traveller Association of Delhi-Rewari route, said that passengers were demanding a reduction in the increased fares in local trains for a long time. The railways have finally changed the numbers of these trains and converted them back into local trains. This is a big relief for daily travellers.
