Track Doubling Work on Ajmer Section Prompts Cancellation of Three Jodhpur Division Trains

Rail operations between Jodhpur, Indore, and Kacheguda face temporary disruptions due to patch doubling work between Ajmer and Chanderiya.

Railway operations on the Ajmer-Chanderiya section under the Ajmer division of North Western Railway are facing temporary disruptions due to vital infrastructure development work. Ongoing patch doubling work between Jharwasa, Bandanwara, and Singwal stations has led railway authorities to suspend services for three key trains operated by the Jodhpur division on specific dates.

Affected Train Services and Cancellation Schedules

According to Anurag Tripathi, Divisional Railway Manager of Jodhpur, train number 14801/14802 running between Jodhpur and Indore will remain entirely cancelled from October 4 through October 11. Over this eight-day operational window, a total of 8 trips across both outward and return directions will not operate, directly impacting regular inter-city travelers.

Similarly, southbound connectivity will also see scheduled interruptions. Train number 17606 operating between Bhagat Ki Kothi and Kacheguda will not run on October 4 and October 7. The divisional railway manager stated that these timetable adjustments became necessary purely to accommodate the on-track doubling activity within the Ajmer division.

Travel Advisory and Alternate Arrangements for Passengers

With services suspended on these key routes, passengers commuting between Jodhpur and Indore will need to reorganize their travel schedules well in advance. Commuters planning journeys between October 4 and October 11 are advised to arrange alternative transport methods to prevent travel disruptions. Railway officials have urged travelers to verify real-time train run status before heading out to boarding stations.

Long-Term Benefits of the Track Doubling Project

The patch doubling project along the Ajmer-Chanderiya corridor represents an essential step forward in upgrading regional railway infrastructure. Once track construction concludes, the stretch will offer improved operational capacity and more reliable running schedules for long-distance trains. Officials emphasized that the current cancellations are strictly temporary and normal operations will resume promptly upon completion of the work.
