Rajasthan News: The Indian Railways’ Kota Division in Rajasthan plans to temporarily add more coaches to a number of trains in an effort to reduce the traffic that travellers encounter on important routes. This calculated action intends to ease travel from significant locations like Puri, Bikaner, Kolkata, Indore, and Varanasi easier for travellers.
Temporary Increase in Train Capacity
To accommodate the growing number of passengers and the spike in waitlisted tickets, the Kota railway administration has declared that it would be expanding the capacity of nine pairs of trains that fall under its jurisdiction. It is anticipated that this move would not only lessen overcrowding but also increase the likelihood that tickets on waitlists will be confirmed, resulting in more convenient travel for customers.
