Local train services start in Bengal with 50% capacity



After a gap of nearly six months the local trains in West Bengal have resumed running from Sunday giving a huge relief to passengers. Though the state government was opening up the transport system in phases, it didn’t allow local trains so far fearing that carrying so many passengers at a time in a single compartment might lead to the spreading of the coronavirus.In a notification issued by the Eastern Railways, it has been said that the local trains will start functioning from Sunday and it will be increased step by step. The notification also said that the decision to start local trains was decided after the state government directed the railway authorities to normalise train services in the state.”We had requested the state government several times but the state didn’t allow us. Without the state’s permission it is impossible to run local trains. Now the state has given the permission, we will try to normalise the train services as soon as possible but it is a gap of six months and it will take some time,” a senior railway official said.
