Three Express Trains to Stop at Bijni Railway Station After Long Public Demand

In a boost to rail connectivity, three long-distance trains — Kamrup Express, Tambaram Express and North East Express — will now halt at Bijni Railway Station from Saturday.

The stoppage was granted following long-standing demands and protests by local residents and passenger groups, including the Bijni Railway Yatri Adhikar Mancha (BRYAM). Passengers welcomed the move, saying it would greatly improve travel options from Bijni.

Local organisations also thanked Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma and said they would continue to demand stoppages for more long-distance trains in the future.
