हरियाणा में रेलयात्रियों के लिए खुशखबरी, भारतीय रेलवे ने इस रूट पर घटाया किराया; जानें नया रेट

Indian Railways has reverted the fare hike implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic. Passengers traveling by passenger trains will now be charged according to the old fare slab. This decision will benefit thousands of passengers in the Sonipat district. In 2020, during the pandemic, all passenger trains were converted into express trains,...

leading to a three-fold increase in fares. With the implementation of the old fare slab, the minimum fare has been reduced to INR 10. The fare from Sonipat to all stations in New Delhi has been reduced from INR 30 to INR 10, and the fare to Hazrat Nizamuddin has been reduced from INR 35 to INR 15. Similarly, the fare from Panipat to New Delhi has been reduced by 50%, now costing INR 15 instead of INR 30. This decision comes after passengers had been demanding a reduction in the unreserved special train fare for a long time. The issue was also raised by members of the Railway Advisory Committee. It is believed that the decision to reduce fares has been made in view of the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.

Indian Railways ne Corona kaal mein kiye gaye fare hike ko vapas le liya hai. Passenger trains mein travel karne waale passengers se ab purane fare slab ke hisab se charge kiya jaayega. Is faisle se Sonipat district ke hajaro passengers ko fayda hoga. 2020 mein, pandemic ke dauraan, sabhi passenger...

trains ko express trains mein badal diya gaya tha, jisse fares mein teen guna tak badhotri ho gayi thi. Ab purane fare slab ke lagoo hone se minimum fare INR 10 ho gaya hai. Sonipat se New Delhi ke sabhi stations ka fare INR 30 se ghatkar INR 10 ho gaya hai, aur Hazrat Nizamuddin ka fare INR 35 se ghatkar INR 15 ho gaya hai. Issi tarah, Panipat se New Delhi ka fare 50% kam ho gaya hai, ab INR 30 ki jagah INR 15 dena hoga. Ye faisla aise samay aaya hai jab passengers lambi samay se unreserved special train ka fare kam karne ki demand kar rahe the. Railway Advisory Committee ke members ne bhi meeting mein yeh issue uthaya tha. Man liya ja raha hai ki fare kam karne ka faisla aane waale Lok Sabha chunav ko dekhte hue liya gaya hai.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
