City railway station ticket counters shifted to new building

1 2 3 Bhubaneswar: The city railway station's transformation under the Amrit Bharat Station scheme has entered a new phase with several key improvements now operational. To maintain seamless passenger services during construction, the station's ticketing operations were relocated. The passenger reservation system (PRS) and unreserved ticketing system (UTS) counters were shifted from the temporary shed to the newly constructed building, ensuring uninterrupted service delivery. A notable development is the opening of a new approach road connecting the Town bus stand and temple side to the station, enhancing accessibility for commuters. Additionally, passengers can now directly access platform no. 1 through a newly constructed ground-level departure concourse, a feature designed to reduce congestion and streamline passenger movement. "These improvements represent our commitment to enhancing the travel experience while maintaining efficient operations during the renovation period," an East Coast Railway statement read. The relocated ticketing and enquiry counters in the new station building offer improved spatial efficiency and better passenger flow

37 pantry car staff fined for ticketless travel in 2 trains

Patna: In a major crackdown on unauthorised travel, the Samastipur division of East Central Railway (ECR) conducted surprise inspections on Saturday and caught 37 pantry car staff, including managers, travelling without valid authorisation. The checks were carried out on two long-distance trains — Muzaffarpur-Anand Vihar Sapt Kranti Express (12557/12558) and Jayanagar-New Delhi Express (12561/12562). Samastipur divisional railway manager (DRM) Vinay Srivastava said the staff had violated railway commercial rules by failing to obtain valid travel passes. "Pantry car staff are required to obtain a travel pass from the commercial department by paying a prescribed fee. This allows them to travel from the train's originating station to its destination. Most of them had not renewed their passes after expiry," Srivastava said. All 37 people were treated as ticketless passengers and fined on the spot. A total of Rs 92,240 was collected from them. Samastipur senior divisional commercial manager (DCM) Ananya Smirti, who led the inspection, termed the lapse "a serious violation of railway norms". She said, "Pantry car staff are obligated to maintain valid travel authority at all times. We are intensifying inspections to ensure full compliance across all long-distance trains." Of the total, 22 staff on the Muzaffarpur-Anand Vihar Sapt Kranti Express were fined Rs 18,480 while 15 on the Jayanagar-New Delhi Express were penalised Rs 73,760.
