Extend the train till Gwalior, it is necessary to reduce the fare
Railways want that the Indore-Bhopal train should be extended till Gwalior. Also, the number of passengers in the Jabalpur-Bhopal train is very less, it should also be extended up to Indore. Railways had said that the fare of trains running with less than 50 per cent passengers will be reduced for a month, in which case the fare of Vande Bharat should be reduced. There is no need to go to the Railway Board for this, this decision can be taken from the zonal itself. The main reason for getting less passengers is the high fare. Due to the reduction in the fare in the scheduled intercity after just 5 minutes from this train, it is running packed up to 95 percent daily.
