Jaipur, April 15 (Udaipur Kiran): In view of increased passenger rush and long waiting lists during the summer holidays, North Western Railway has introduced three special trains on different routes to provide relief to travellers. These services aim to improve connectivity from Rajasthan to Gujarat, West Bengal and eastern parts of India.
At the same time, the Jaipur–Udaipur City special train has now been converted into a regular superfast express and will run daily. This is expected to make travel between the two cities more convenient, especially for regular commuters.
Chief Public Relations Officer Amit Sudarshan said the decision has been taken considering the summer vacation rush and upcoming elections in West Bengal, ensuring better availability of confirmed tickets and reducing passenger load.
