Due to non-interlocking work at Pakur Railway Station under the Howrah Division, the Railways has announced major changes in train operations.
This work will affect several important routes from November 27 to 29.
Additionally, an eight-hour line block will be in place on November 30, from 9:10 am to 5:10 pm.
These changes will impact thousands of passengers traveling on the Malda, Howrah, Guwahati, Bhagalpur, and New Jalpaiguri routes.
Many trains will be cancelled, diverted, or will end their journey earlier than usual.

Daily Commuters Face Major Trouble
For the next three days, passengers—especially those in rural areas—will face serious inconvenience.
The cancellation of the Bardhaman–Tinpahar Passenger and the diversion of important express trains will affect students, office workers, and women commuters the most.
Local passengers traveling daily between Pakur, Tinpahar, Rampurhat, and Sahibganj say these trains are their only dependable option for returning home.
With no alternative transportation available, the situation is expected to be difficult for many.
