झारखंड की  "एंबुलेंस ट्रेन" के रूट पर स्पेशल क्लोन ट्रेन की मांग पर  आया बड़ा अपडेट

There is a push to introduce a clone special train on the route of the 'Ambulance Train' of Jharkhand, which is the Dhanbad - Alappuzha Express. This train is popular as it connects people from Dhanbad, Giridih, Deoghar, Jamtara, Dumka, and Godda to the CMC Vellore Hospital in Tamil Nadu, as...

well as aiding workers going to South India. The need for a clone train arises because of the increasing waiting list on the Dhanbad - Alappuzha Express, due to the suspension of other special trains running between Dhanbad and Tambaram/Coimbatore. The Dhanbad railway division has proposed this to the East Central Railway headquarters in Hajipur, and while there were attempts last year, the request was denied. This year, with the demand rising due to the closure of six special trains operating during summer vacation, the railway division is pushing for the clone train to ease the burden on the regular train, which is also crucial for medical travel, especially for patients going to CMC Vellore.

Jharkhand ka 'Ambulance Train', yaani Dhanbad - Alappuzha Express ke route pe ek clone special train chalane ki baat chal rahi hai. Ye train Dhanbad, Giridih, Deoghar, Jamtara, Dumka aur Godda ke logo ko Tamil Nadu ke CMC Vellore Hospital tak lekar jaati hai, aur South India jaane wale workers ko...

bhi help karti hai. Clone train ki zarurat isliye hai kyunki Dhanbad se Tambaram/Coimbatore chalne wali aur special trains band hone ke baad Dhanbad - Alappuzha Express ki waiting list bahut lambi ho gayi hai. Dhanbad railway division ne is baat ke liye Hajipur ke East Central Railway headquarters ko proposal bheja hai. Pichhle saal bhi ye request ki gayi thi, lekin train nahi mili. Is baal summer vacation mein chalne wali chhe special trains band hone ke baad, Dhanbad se Alappuzha jaane wali regular train pe bahut pressure aa gaya hai. Ye train medical travel ke liye bhi bahut important hai, especially CMC Vellore jaane wale patients ke liye.
