general class passengers. The addition of general coaches will allow more passengers to travel without reservations, addressing a common issue of overcrowding on these trains. Meanwhile, the Bilaspur Railway Station is undergoing a major revamp under the 'Amrit Bharat Station' scheme. As part of this project, the existing car and auto parking lot in front of the station will be shifted to a temporary location behind the Mulkraj Hotel. Once this temporary parking is operational, construction will begin on a new building in front of the station. The new building will house various offices currently located within the station building, which will then be renovated as part of the scheme. The temporary parking is expected to be ready within 10-15 days.

Phir purani building ko Amrit Bharat scheme ke under renovate kiya jayega. Yeh temporary parking 10-15 din mein ready hone wali hai.

बड़ी अजीब बात है बाकी ट्रेनों को कैंसल कर दिया जबलपुर भोपाल वंदे भारत एक्सप्रेस को छोड़कर। अब लोगो को मजबूरी में अमरकंटक एक्सप्रेस या वंदे भारत एक्सप्रेस में जाना होगा भोपाल तक।
