Inauguration of New Train Routes
Union Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw has officially flagged off two brand-new train services aimed at improving connectivity between Bihar, Eastern Uttar Pradesh, and the national capital. The newly launched trains will run between Chhapra and Anand Vihar, and Mau and Anand Vihar. Notably, the service starting from Chhapra in Bihar will travel to Delhi by passing through Mau, providing a dual benefit to passengers along this route.
Enhanced Connectivity for Eastern Uttar Pradesh and Bihar
This development brings significant relief and travel options to several key districts in Eastern Uttar Pradesh. Areas such as Mau, Azamgarh, Shahganj, and Jaunpur are set to benefit from two new train services simultaneously. Additionally, the districts of Ballia and Sultanpur have each received one new train service.
With these additions, the total number of trains running between Delhi and Mau has increased to six. Prior to this launch, travelers had access to four trains on this route: the Lichchhavi Express, Garib Nawaz Express, Mau-Anand Vihar Express, and the Mau-Anand Vihar Superfast Express.
