As we gear up to ring in the New Year, many Punekars are making plans to celebrate in style. Some are opting to explore various places in the city, while others are looking forward to spending time with their loved ones.
However, if you’re planning to head to the railway station during this festive period, you might want to take note of a temporary ban on platform ticket sales at some of the main railway stations in Pune. The Central Railway administration has put these restrictions in place to avoid overcrowding and ensure the safety of passengers.
The ban will be in effect until midnight on January 2, 2025, so make sure to plan your journey accordingly. The affected stations include Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus, Dadar, Lokmanya Tilak Terminus, Thane, Kalyan, Panvel, Nagpur, Nashik, Bhuswal, Akola, Solapur, Kalburgi, Pune, and Latur.
While these restrictions may cause some inconvenience, they are necessary to manage the crowds during this busy time of year. The railway administration has made an appeal to passengers to cooperate and follow the new rules for a smooth and safe journey.
Exceptions will be made for elderly passengers, senior citizens, patients, children, illiterate individuals, and women who require assistance while traveling. These individuals will be exempted from the ban to ensure their travel is hassle-free.
So, whether you’re planning to celebrate the New Year with a bang or simply looking forward to a quiet evening with loved ones, make sure to keep these restrictions in mind if you’re using the railway station in Pune. Stay safe and have a wonderful start to the year ahead!
