Title - Reservations Full Till 30th June in Trains Due To Summer Vacations

No reservations will be available for passengers till 30th jne due to summer vacations, this rush creates such a huge pressure on NWR.

Starting half-a-dozen summer specials and adding extra coaches for various destinations by the authorities of North Western Railway (NWR), too has proved insufficient for the passengers.

The railway reservation counters at Jaipur station are witnessing long queues. Adding more to their woes are the snags in railway servers and poor response from the website.

Jammu Tawi which connects Jammu to Ajmer via Phulera is completely booked with the waiting list increasing every day. This is one train that is much in demand during summer holidays. There are passengers who want to reserve a berth in trains for Mumbai and Chennai. The trains for Mumbai and Chennai are also completely booked till June 30.

However, authorities maintained that adding coaches to various trains would be on till June 30 as per the demands of passengers after due permission from the railway board.

Destinations which have almost no tickets in any class till June 30 include Kanpur, Lucknow, Howrah, Mumbai, Chennai, Delhi, Jammu and Ludhiana.

This has led to fluctuating fare of flight tickets. The Jaipur-Delhi flight usually costs me around Rs 2,675. However, on Friday I had to pay Rs 6,500 for a flight to Delhi and while returning to Jaipur I paid Rs 6,325.

So those looking forward to travelling by train during summer holidays there is not much joy reason majority of the trains to key places from Jaipur have ‘no room vacant’ position.
