Some rescheduled trains include Udyan Express, Madurai-Rameswaram Express Special, CNB-FBD passenger and BBS-NDLS VIA-TATA RAJ DHA. Also, a total of 10 trains are diverted which includes NDLS-DBG CLONE SPL, Bagmati Express, Gaya-Howrah Express and seven other trains.
Why do trains get rescheduled or cancelled?
Since India has a large rail network, it is difficult to maintain and operate all the tracks efficiently. Thus, operational and maintenance glitches result in trains getting delayed, diverted and even cancelled.
Other than that, the weather is an absolute game-changer. Floods, heavy rainfall and extreme weathers destroy the train tracks to an extent. Sometimes, they get flooded which might lead to corrosion. So, the weather is also an important concern.
