Restore pre-Covid train services in Vellore & Ranipet, say passengers
VELLORE/RANIPET: Amid overcrowded trains and cramped compartments, passengers urged the Southern Railways to restore the pre-pandemic services between Arakkonam and Vellore Cantonment / Katpadi and Arakkonam and Chennai. These trains had been stopped during Covid-19.
“There is no place here to stand or keep our luggage. Whenever a passenger entrains or detrains, they squeeze through us,” said a senior citizen travelling on the footboard. This also raises the risk of Covid-19 infection, as the caseload surges across the country.
