The extension of two train routes from Tatanagar station to Ara, Buxar, and Thawe has significantly reduced passenger traffic on Bihar buses. As a result, there are fewer buses running from Jamshedpur to Ara, Buxar, Dumraon, Brahmpur, Pratap Sagar, Bhojpur, Bihhia, and Siwan. The Chakradharpur Division has extended the Tatanagar-Danapur Express...

to Buxar, while the Durg-Rajendranagar South Bihar Express now passes through Tatanagar and goes to Ara. This has led to residents of Patna, Danapur, and Bihta choosing to travel by train instead of buses. The extension of the Tatanagar-Chhapra Express to Thawe has also impacted the number of buses traveling from Jamshedpur to Siwan. According to Ram Uday Singh, president of the Jamshedpur Bus Owners Welfare Association, there has been a drop of over 500 passengers on these routes daily. Before the train extensions, 12 buses traveled from Jamshedpur to Ara and Buxar, but now only eight remain. Similarly, the extension to Thawe has pushed two out of four buses on the Siwan route to the brink of closure. The difference in fares between trains and buses, with train fares being significantly cheaper, is a major factor in the shift to train travel. For instance, the general class fare for the Ara and Buxar train is 190 rupees and sleeper class is 350 rupees, while buses charge 600 rupees. The Thawe train fare is 215 rupees for general class and 385 for sleeper class, whereas buses charge 600 rupees.

Tatanagar station se do trains ka Ara, Buxar aur Thawe tak extension hone se Bihar ki buses mein passengers ki bheed kam ho gayi hai. Isse Jamshedpur stand se Ara, Buxar, Dumraon, Brahmpur, Pratap Sagar, Bhojpur, Bihhia, aur Siwan ke liye kam buses chalne lagi hain. Chakradharpur Mandal ne Tatanagar-Danapur Express...

ko Buxar tak chala diya hai, aur Durg-Rajendranagar South Bihar Express ab Tatanagar se ho kar Ara ja rahi hai. Isse Patna, Danapur aur Bihta ke residents bhi bus ki jagah train mein travel karne lage hain. Tatanagar-Chhapra Express ka Thawe tak extension hone ka asar Jamshedpur se Siwan jaane wali bus par pada hai. Jamshedpur Bus Owners Welfare Association ke president Ram Uday Singh ke according, in routes par roz 500 se zyada passengers kam ho gaye hain. Trains ke extensions se pehle, Jamshedpur se 12 buses Ara aur Buxar jati thi, lekin ab sirf aath buses chal rahi hain. Isi tarah, Thawe tak train jaane se Siwan ki chaar mein se do buses band hone ki kagar par hai. Trains aur buses ke fares mein aadhe se zyada ka antar hai, aur train ke fares kam hone se log bus se kam travel kar rahe hain. Jaise ki Ara aur Buxar ki train ka general class fare 190 rupees aur sleeper class 350 rupees hai, jabki buses 600 rupees charge karti hain. Thawe ki train ka general class fare 215 rupees aur sleeper class 385 rupees hai, jabki buses 600 rupees charge karti hain.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
