Holi festival is just round the corner and it’s the time when migratory human flocks throng from across the nation towards their homely abode to be with their loved ones. The rush is enormous and its nothing new for every Indian to hit the bookings kiosks this holiday season. Ticket bookings via Railways starts from 120 days prior to the journey date. The early deciders are the ones that crack the competition to get a confirmed berth during the travel bookings. Also, travel becomes much merrier with your belly being in the happy mode as well with online food ordering options in trains. Numerous AI powered apps offer alternate options and booking alerts for any availability for bookings. In-spite of all the tech gigs available, people have to travel through general compartments and other modes of travel such as buses and airways.
To curb the rush, Indian Railways has announced special trains which would run to carry the passengers across the nation. The Northern Railways (NR) zone of the Railway Ministry is looking to clear the extra rush during the festive season. The Holi special trains will also include weekly and bi-weekly special trains.
