Train commuters will face triple traffic blocks in Sealdah division this Sunday.
Following a request from the state government, the Eastern Railway’s Sealdah Division has decided to cancel and regulate Circular Railway train services for immersion of idols from 4 p.m. to 5 a.m. on 3, 4 and 5 February.
The Sealdah division earned more than Rs 25 lakh from ticket sales at two stations of Namkhana and Kakdwip during six days of Gangasagar Mela.
As Durga Puja is round the corner and the pre-puja crowd is already swelling with every passing day, the Sealdah Division is gearing up to handle the enormous footfall during the festive day.
The decision, according to the Kolkata Metro Railway office, has been taken considering the increasing footfall at the city’s underground transport system.
