Chhattisgarh: Rail passengers are in for a tough time once again. According to the latest Chhattisgarh train cancellation information, the Railways has decided to cancel a total of 14 trains passing through the state. This decision was made due to the work of connecting the third and fourth lines on the Rajnandgaon-Nagpur rail section. In this sequence, non-interlocking work will be carried out at the Tumsar Road yard, which will run from January 24 to January 31, 2026.

According to railway officials, 14 MEMU and passenger trains will be completely cancelled due to this technical work. Additionally, some local trains will terminate mid-way, while two trains will depart late. This will cause significant inconvenience, especially to daily commuters, working professionals, and students.

Several passenger and MEMU trains, such as Tumsar Road–Tirodi, Tirodi–Tumsar Road, Itwari–Tirodi, Balaghat–Itwari–Tirodi, and Itwari–Balaghat, will be cancelled between January 24 and 31, 2026. Meanwhile, MEMU services on the Durg–Gondia, Gondia–Durg, Dongargarh–Gondia, and Itwari–Gondia routes will also be affected between January 28 and 31.

The Railways has urged passengers to check train status before traveling and plan for alternative means of transportation. However, this temporary inconvenience is being considered necessary for improved rail connectivity in the future. Ultimately, this Chhattisgarh train cancellation situation is challenging for passengers, but once the development work is complete, both the speed and convenience of trains will improve.
