Indian Railways announced on Monday, June 22, 2026, that it has approved additional stoppages for four trains at key stations in Haryana and Rajasthan. This move aims to make travel easier for local passengers and improve rail connectivity in these regions. Railway officials stated that the decision followed an assessment of passenger demand and operational feasibility.
Which trains will now stop at Haryana stations?
Passengers in Haryana will see improved connectivity at two specific stations. The Delhi-Saturod Passenger (54085/54086) will now stop at Patuwas Mehrana station. Additionally, the Agartala-Firozpur Express (14619/14620) and Bikaner-Haridwar Express (14717/14718) will have new stoppages at Hansi station.
What is the update for Rajasthan passengers?
In Rajasthan, the Jaipur-Asarva Express (12981/12982) will now stop at Bijaynagar station. Previously, this train only stopped at Nasirabad and Bhilwara. This change will allow local residents to access the rail service directly from their own area without traveling to distant stations.
Who will benefit from these new stoppages?
| Station | Beneficiaries | Impact |
|---|---|---|
| Patuwas Mehrana | Rewari-Bhiwani residents | No need to go to Jhadli or Charkhi Dadri |
| Hansi | Local commuters | Better links to East, North, and West India |
