Overview
- The Railways approved stoppages for Train No. 14331 (Delhi‑Kalka Express) and Train No. 14053 (Delhi‑Daulatpur Chowk Himachal Express) at Adarsh Nagar, which the Union railway minister granted Saturday after a request from Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta.
- Officials said the halts take effect immediately but did not publish detailed timetable or platform changes, leaving operational adjustments to be set by railway authorities.
- Delhi officials say the move will save time for residents of North and West Delhi by reducing trips to central stations such as New Delhi and Old Delhi.
- State leaders framed the decision as a cooperative step with the central government, and Gupta publicly thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw for approving the request.
- Adding stops on express routes is a routine railway measure that can ease local travel and boost tourist and pilgrim access; commuters should watch for published schedule updates and platform allocations before travelling.
