Tourists and traders from the Northeast, who wish to travel to Dhaka by the bi-weekly Mitali Express, can now book their tickets at the Guwahati railway station itself.
Earlier, one had to travel to New Jalpaiguri or Calcutta in neighbouring Bengal to purchase tickets for the train that connects New Jalpaiguri in Bengal with the Bangladesh capital.
The Northeast Frontier Railway (NFR) said on Friday that Guwahati railway station has started operating an overseas ticketing counter to help commuters availing the New Jalpaiguri-Dhaka-New Jalpaiguri Mitali Express.
