HYDERABAD: The South Central Railway (SCR) on Saturday cancelled 37 trains and regular MMTS services on Sunday stating "operational reasons". However, it appears like the railway authorities cancelled the trains fearing trouble during the 'Chalo Hyderabad' protest scheduled for Sunday.

SCR, in an official release issued here, announced cancellation of 12 express trains and 25 passenger trains. Sixteen trains arriving in the city were amongst the cancelled trains, while seven trains were partially cancelled. MMTS services between Falaknuma and Lingampalli are also cancelled, but officials announced that special MMTS services would run in the early hours of Sunday on the account of Ganesh immersion. SCR maintained that the cancellations were due to operational reasons, but refused to elaborate on it.
