During last year's Onam season, there were a total of 52 special trips arranged by the Railways, while the year before saw only 22 such trips. This year, however, has seen a significant increase with a total of 129 special trips being organized to manage the passenger influx.
The Railways have reported that approximately 1.48 lakh passengers travel by train during the Onam season each year. To handle this surge in passengers, an additional 190 coaches have been added to these special services.
This initiative aims to ensure that travelers can reach their destinations comfortably and without any undue delays during one of Kerala's most celebrated festivals.
