More than one lakh passengers move through the railway station in Chhattisgarh’s capital Raipur every day. To control the growing number of passengers and the crowding inside the station premises, the railway has introduced a new arrangement. Under this, a holding area has been prepared near Gate No. 3 of the station, where passengers will be able to wait in an organised manner before their train’s departure.

Due to the heavy movement of passengers at the railway station, crowding often develops around the entry and exit gates. Pressure increases on the platforms and in the station premises especially during busy hours and when trains arrive and depart. Keeping this in mind, the holding area has been created.

The aim of this arrangement is to prevent passengers from gathering unnecessarily on the station’s main entry and exit routes. Passengers will be able to wait for their train in the holding area and move towards the station as required.

The railway’s initiative is expected to help improve crowd management in the station premises and make passenger movement smoother.
