हटिया-पुरी तपस्विनी एक्सप्रेस को हजारीबाग टाउन व कोडरमा होते हुए गया जंक्शन तक करने की मांग

The Koderma District Chamber of Commerce and Industries has requested the Union Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw to extend the Hatia-Puri-Hatia Tapsviani Express (train numbers 18451 and 18452) to Gaya Junction via Hazaribagh Town and Koderma. The letter, issued by the Chamber President Pradeep Kadia, states that Gaya, home to the famous...

Vishnu Pad Temple dedicated to Lord Vishnu and a holy place for Buddhists, attracts pilgrims from across the country. Lakhs of devotees visit Gaya during Pitru Paksha to perform Shraddha rituals for the peace of their ancestors. Despite its significance, there is no direct rail service from important regions of Jharkhand and Odisha to Gaya, causing great inconvenience to passengers. Currently, the Hatia-Puri Tapsviani Express runs seven days a week, connecting major cities in Jharkhand and Odisha. The train travels to Puri via Rourkela and Sambalpur, but passenger numbers drastically decrease after Rourkela. The train operates at just 25% capacity between Rourkela and Hatia. Extending the train to Gaya via Hazaribagh Town and Koderma would maximize its capacity, generate higher revenue for the railways, and facilitate travel for a significant population in Odisha, Jharkhand, and Bihar. This extension would also boost trade and tourism, fostering development in the region. Extending the Hatia-Puri Express would provide easier connectivity to residents of cities like Koderma, Giridih, Hazaribagh, and Ramgarh to various cities in Odisha, promoting trade and cultural exchange.

Koderma District Chamber of Commerce and Industries ne Union Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw ko letter likhkar Hatia-Puri-Hatia Tapsviani Express (train numbers 18451 and 18452) ka vistaar Hazaribagh Town aur Koderma hote hue Gaya Junction tak karne ki maang ki hai. Chamber ke president Pradeep Kadia ki taraf se diye gaye letter...

mein kaha gaya hai ki Gaya, jahan Bhagwan Vishnu ka prasiddh Vishnu Pad Mandir sthit hai aur Buddhist dharmavlambiyon ke liye bhi yeh sthal pavitra hai, pure desh se shraddhaluon ko apni aur aakarshit karta hai. Pitru Paksh mein yahan aane vale lakhs shraddhalu apne purvajon ki aatma ki shanti ke liye shraddha karne aate hain. Iske bawjud, Jharkhand aur Odisha ke mahatvpurn kshetron se Gaya ke liye seedhi rail seva uplabdh nahin hai, jisse yaatriyon ko badi asuvidha hoti hai. Vartamaan mein Hatia-Puri Tapsviani Express saptah ke saaton din chalti hai, jo Jharkhand aur Odisha ke pramukh shahron ko jodti hai. Yeh train Rourkela aur Sambalpur se hote hue Puri tak jati hai, parantu Rourkela ke baad ismein yaatriyon ki sankhya kaafi kam ho jati hai. Rourkela se Hatia tak train mein kshamata ke sirf 25% yaatri hi yatra karte hain. Aise mein yadi is train ka vistaar Hazaribagh Town, Koderma hote hue Gaya tak kiya jata hai, to iski kshamata ka adhiktam upyog ho sakega aur railway ko bhi adhik rajsw prapt hoga. Train ka vistaar Gaya tak kiya jata hai, to Odisha, Jharkhand aur Bihar ke bade hisson mein logon ke liye yatra aasan ho jaegi. Saath hi vyapar aur paryatan ko bhi badhava milega, jisse in kshetron mein vikas ki gati tez ho sakegi. Hatia-Puri Express ke vistaar se Koderma, Giridih, Hazaribagh, aur Ramgarh jaise shahron ke niwasiyon ko Odisha ke vibhinn shahron se judne mein asani hogi, jisse vyaparik aur sanskritik aadanan-pradhan mein vruddhi hogi.

Howrah from Dhanbad, 783 seats in the chair car and 65 seats in the executive class remained empty. These tickets are available for booking through current booking.

Without the food charge, the fare from Dhanbad to Howrah will be reduced by 300 to 370 rupees. The fare from Dhanbad to Gaya will be reduced by 350 to 400 rupees. If passengers choose the 'no food' option during booking, they will not have to pay the catering charge.

aur executive class mein 65 seat khali reh gayi. Current booking ke jariye in tickets ki booking ho rahi hai. Kiraya zyada hone ke karan yaatri bina catering charge ke Vande Bharat Express mein ticket book karwa rahe hain.

Yaatri agar booking ke samay 'no food' ka vikalp choose karenge to unhe catering charge ka bhutaan nahi karna hoga.
