Indian Railway: From 1st January, the numbers of the trains running as special services will be changed. Among these, 24 trains originate or pass through Bilaspur. These trains had been running as special services since the COVID-19 pandemic, which is why their numbers were also altered.
But now the situation has become normal. Therefore, the Indian Railways has decided to run these trains with their old numbers. The railways released the list of these 124 trains a month ago, keeping in mind the convenience of the passengers.
Previously, the fare for travelling from Bilaspur to Raipur by local train was set at Rs 30, but it is now being charged at Rs 55. Similarly, fares for MEMU and other trains have also increased. To reduce these increased fares, the numbers of special trains will be changed from 1st January 2025, and they will revert to their original numbers. This will also reduce the fare.
