The Ministry of Railways announced the extension of three train services and the addition of new halts on ten routes, aiming to improve connectivity across the network.
Indian Railways has issued a fresh timetable that expands three existing long‑distance services, allowing them to run over longer routes or with increased frequency. In addition, ten other trains will now stop at newly designated stations, providing passengers in smaller towns better access to the rail network.
The changes are part of the railways' ongoing effort to enhance regional connectivity and address passenger demand on underserved routes. By adding halts, the railways aim to reduce travel time for commuters who previously had to rely on road transport to reach major junctions.
Officials said the adjustments will be reflected in the schedule from the upcoming weekly update, and travelers are advised to check the revised timings on the official website or mobile app before planning their journeys.
