The additional trains aim to ease travel congestion and provide greater convenience for devotees and travellers heading to the Mahakumbh Mela. The railway initiative comes in the wake of a stampede at New Delhi Railway Station on Saturday, which resulted in 18 fatalities and several injuries.
In response to the tragic incident, Central Railway has also announced four special trains to assist pilgrims travelling to Prayagraj. Authorities continue to implement measures to ensure the safety and smooth movement of the millions attending the Mahakumbh Mela 2025.
