Where is 10,000 special trains for Bihar's Diwali-Chhath travel who Government Promised.

Announced in September 2025 to handle migrant rush from Bihar and Uttar Pradesh, the trains aim to transport millions; as of October 19, nearly 10,000 were notified, but reports show persistent chaos, including passengers in train bathrooms at Kanpur Central.

But, a video of thousands of migrant workers queued orderly at Udhna railway station in Surat, praising Gujarat's management to avoid crowds and chaos during their return home for Diwali on October 20, 2025.

This annual Diwali exodus involves over 16,000 workers daily boarding special trains to Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, and Jharkhand, with railways introducing mobile ticketing to handle the surge amid upcoming Bihar elections and Chhath Puja.

Another viral video of extreme overcrowding in a sleeper coach of a train from Chennai's Perambur Junction to Danapur, Bihar, sarcastically thanking Indian Railways for effectively turning it into an unreserved general coach amid festival rush.

On October 18, 2025, two men died and one was injured after falling from the Karmabhoomi Express near Nashik, underscoring safety risks amid high demand, even as Central Railway operates 1,702 additional trains for the festivals

This highlights ongoing passenger management challenges during Diwali and Chhath Puja 2025, despite Indian Railways announcing 12,000 special trains, as confirmed by Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw, yet reports of chaos persist in southern and northern zones.

RJD Leader Kanchana Yadav's post criticizes Railways Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw for unfulfilled promises of 12,000 special trains for Bihar's Diwali-Chhath travel, attaching video of severe overcrowding with passengers hanging from doors at a Mumbai station.

Priyanka Bharti, an RJD spokesperson, criticizes Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw for unfulfilled promises of 12,000 special trains during Diwali-Chhath, linking it to a recent fatal overcrowding incident on a Mumbai-Bihar train.

The footage aligns with that day's tragedy where two men from Bihar died falling from an overcrowded train near Nashik, fueling RJD's political attack on BJP's infrastructure handling amid annual labor migration strains.

Replies reveal political undertones, with some users mocking the "Gujarat model" by linking it to past COVID-era hardships and voter loyalty to BJP, highlighting ongoing debates on migrant welfare in India

The video attached shows severe overcrowding at stations and passengers hanging from train doors, highlighting ongoing migration challenges for Bihari workers despite Indian Railways' announcement of 12,000 festive specials to transport 3 crore extra passengers.
