specials are connecting important stations such as New Delhi, Mumbai,
Kolkata, Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Jammu Tawi, Jaipur, Guwahati, Lucknow,
Pune, Gorakhpur, Patna, Dibrugarh, Banaras, Darbhanga, Barauni, Barelli,

strengthened to prevent misuse of tickets etc. Special arrangements are
being made to make regular announcements about additional coaches,
