This was the plan of the Railways
It was already estimated that 7 to 8 crore people would attend the second Shahi Snan in the maha Kumbh. Therefore, the Railways had made preparations for it. According to the Railways' plan, on Mauni Amavasya, i.e. yesterday (January 29), special trains were run from Prayagraj stations only to take the passengers out of Prayagraj. That means special trains from other cities did not come to Prayagraj. However, apart from this plan, the regular trains going to and coming from Prayagraj continued to run as per their schedule.After taking a dip in the second royal bath, a crowd of people rushed towards the stations of Prayagraj Railway Division.

Let us tell you that the railway is making plans in collaboration with the Uttar Pradesh government during the maha Kumbh. The railway has made plans for the entire maha Kumbh and work is being done under this.
