Passengers appreciate prompt response of Waltair Division officials in arranging a special train in lieu of cancelled Vande Bharat

The cancellation of train no. 20833 Visakhapatnam-Secunderabad Vande Bharat at the eleventh hour on March 08 has, no doubt, irked passengers. But, the prompt response of the officials in arranging a special train, in less than two hours, drew the appreciation of the passengers.

Divisional Railway Manager Saurabh Prasad, ADRM Manoj Kumar Sahoo and other senior officials rushed to the railway station and interacted with the passengers and told them that technical issues had led to the malfunctioning of AC in eight coaches of Vande Bharat.

A special train (01833) was arranged from Visakhapatnam to Secunderabad at short notice. The special train had a composition of 13 III AC, 2 II AC, 2 Sleeper class and one generator power car with the same stoppages as that of 20833 Visakhapatnam – Secunderabad Vande Bharat express.
