Every year on the festival of Diwali-Chhath, lakhs of people go to their homes in Bihar, so that they can celebrate this festival with their families. In view of this, many festival special trains are also run by the Railways. Even after this, many people are not able to get the ticket confirmed. In such a situation, people resort to some kind of jugaad and go to their homes in a bad condition. Its hallmarks are visible from social media to main core media also. Many such videos are coming out, where a huge crowd of passengers is being seen at the railway stations. Passengers have been waiting outside the railway station for hours, at some places the train is late and at some places there is a huge crowd outside the railway station. Together, these passengers have been made to sit under a pandal outside the station.
Such is the condition of those going to Bihar
The latest case has come to light at Anand Vihar station. Where, the condition of the passengers traveling in the train going from Delhi to Bhagalpur is looking quite pathetic. Since the tickets of the passengers are not confirmed, they are going to their homes by boarding the general compartment of the train. In the video, many people are seen hanging at the train gate. About 4600 passengers are traveling on top of each other in 5 general bogies of Bhagalpur Express. These passengers do not even care about their lives. Somehow, just find a place to put one foot. Standing on the same leg, they will go to Bihar.
Forced to travel sitting in the train toilet
Passengers who did not get space even in the general compartment. They are ready to travel sitting in train toilets. In the video, not one, not two but eight people can be seen entering the train toilet and sitting with their luggage. The passengers are troubled by the smell and heat, but it is so important for them to go home that even under this compulsion, despite being in a bad condition, they want to go home.
