7th. This decision, announced by the South Eastern Railway Zone, will cause inconvenience to hundreds of passengers who had already booked tickets. The Sikh community, through the Central Gurudwara Management Committee, had previously protested against the cancellation of the Jallianwala Bagh Express, leading to the railway administration reversing the decision in 2023. However, the cancellation has been reinstated for the 2023-2024 winter season. The decision to cancel the Anand Vihar Weekly Express has also sparked protests, with passengers criticizing the railway for targeting specific trains while others on the same route remain operational.

Fog ke karan, Indian Railways ne Tatanagar-Amritsar Jallianwala Bagh Express aur Santragachi-Anand Vihar Weekly Express ko 2 December se cancel karne ka decision liya hai. Jallianwala Bagh Express 2 December se 28 February tak nahi chalegi, aur Anand Vihar Weekly Express 2 December se 7 January tak band rahegi. South Eastern...

Railway Zone ne yeh order diya hai. Isse bahut saare passengers, jinhone pehle hi tickets book ki thi, ko pareshani hogi. Sikh community ne pehle hi Jallianwala Bagh Express cancel karne ka virodh kiya tha, jiske karan railway administration ne 2023 me decision वापस le liya tha. Lekin, ab fir se cancel karne ka order aaya hai. Anand Vihar Weekly Express ko cancel karne ka decision bhi virodh ka samna kar raha hai, kyunki passengers yeh keh rahe hain ki railway sirf kuchh specific trains ko target kar raha hai, jabki dusri trains usi route par chalti rehti hain.
