Travelling Home for Sankranti? Here are additional Special Trains!

Sankranti festival is coming. Due to this, city residents going to their hometowns are reserving seats in trains and buses. But all the berths in the daily trains were filled three months back. Due to this, people are suffering from not being able to find seats on trains and paying huge fares on buses and private travel. Due to this, South Central Railway has announced more special trains in view of the rush of passengers. 8 special trains will run between Secunderabad-Brahmapur-Secunderabad and Vikarabad-Brahmapur-Vikarabad.
