Fake news running on social media
As per a Railway Ministry representative, it is commonly gotten some information about any chance of running trains for erroneously running phony news. Thusly, it is explained that by May 3, 2020, all traveler train administrations have been suspended. Be that as it may, some reckless covering some various media stages (particularly web-based life) prompted the suspicion that a few trains could begin soon. This is totally off-base.
