Delhi Jn to Haridwar train extensions begin July 30 for the annual Kanwar Yatra. These special Mainline Electric Multiple Unit (MEMU) services will run daily through August 14. This move helps devotees reach the Haridwar ghats safely. It reduces heavy road traffic and provides a faster city-to-city rail link.
Several Diesel Electric Multiple Unit (DEMU) trains now connect Delhi to Haridwar directly. Key halts include Ghaziabad, Meerut City, and Roorkee for better accessibility. These stations expect high footfall during the early morning rush hours. Devotees should check the National Train Enquiry System (NTES) for daily live updates.
