The National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC) will operate 32 additional Namo Bharat train trips on the Delhi-Meerut corridor on November 11, coinciding with Bhai Dooj. These extra services aim to reduce waiting times to under 10 minutes, accommodate increased festival travel, and ease road congestion amid rising pollution in Delhi-NCR. The NCRTC is already running 20 additional trips and expects the increased frequency to benefit both festival travelers and daily commuters.
