गोरखपुर से गोंडा के बीच रेलवे ट्रैक का मेगा ब्‍लॉक, 22 ट्रेनें रद्द; 15 के रूट बदले

Due to a mega block between Gorakhpur and Gonda on Tuesday and Wednesday, some train platforms at Gorakhpur station have been changed. 22 trains have been canceled and the routes of 15 have been altered. Trains that normally depart from platform number one will depart from platform number two for two...

days. In case of crowding in the evening, trains from platform number two may be shifted to another available platform. The Vaishali express, traveling from Saharsa to New Delhi, and the Barauni-New Delhi Special will depart from platform number two on September 3rd and 4th. The New Jalpaiguri-New Delhi Express will depart from platform number two or three depending on availability. Other platforms remain unchanged, although adjustments may occur in case of crowding in the evening. The implementation of this route block system allows for multiple train operations between the two stations. This will result in increased efficiency and improved train arrival times. A 50-day block on platform number eight of Gorakhpur Railway Station for a washable apron ended on Monday, September 2nd. The Gorakhdham Express from Bathinda arrived at platform number eight on Monday morning, and multiple other trains were subsequently operated from this platform. Mumbai and Pune trains will begin operations from this platform starting Tuesday.

Gorakhpur aur Gonda ke beech mega block ke wajah se, Mangalwar aur Budhvaar ko Gorakhpur station pe kuch train ka platform change kar diya gaya hai. 22 trains cancel kar di gayi hai aur 15 ka route badal gaya hai. Vaishali express, jo platform number ek se chalti hai, woh do...

din ke liye platform number do se chalegi. Agar shaam ko bheed badh gayi toh platform number do ki trains ko dusre khali platform pe shift kar diya jayega. Saharsa se New Delhi jaane wali Vaishali aur Barauni-New Delhi Special 3 aur 4 September ko platform number do se chalegi. New Jalpaiguri-New Delhi Express ko platform number do ya three se chalane ki plan hai, availability ke basis par. Dusre platforms par koi badlav abhi tak nahi hai, lekin shaam ko agar trains ki bheed hoti hai toh kuch trains ka platform badal bhi sakta hai. Route block system ke lagne se, do stations ke beech aage-peeche bahut saare trains chal sakti hai. Isse efficiency badhega aur trains ka station par pahunchne ka time bhi sahi hoga. Gorakhpur railway station ke platform number aath pe 50 din ka block, jo ki washable apron ke liye tha, 2 September ko khatam ho gaya. Bathinda se aane wali Gorakhdham Express, Monday subah platform number aath pe rukti hai, aur is platform se bahut saare trains chalti hai. Mangalwar se Mumbai aur Pune ki trains is platform se chalegi.

team seized all documents and informed higher authorities. They are currently in Delhi headquarters to finalize the report, which will then be submitted to the divisional officer of Ambala division for further action against the accused employees. The raid was conducted at around 11 pm on August 13th, just before the employees' shift ended. The vigilance team examined all the counters and found discrepancies in the ticket count and the amount collected. The station officials were informed and were present during the investigation, which lasted for about two and a half hours. A preliminary report was created on the spot. This incident has raised questions about the railway's work style as the employees were not removed from their posts despite the irregularities found. Usually, in such cases, employees are immediately transferred and further action is taken after the investigation report is submitted.
