Several passengers complained that such delays cause repeated problems in their daily routines of work, business and emergencies at times.
Local residents also urged the authorities to increase the frequency of the Demo train to twice a day, saying it would greatly benefit regular travellers and reduce crowding.
Meanwhile, officials at the Ledo Railway Station informed that Thursday’s delay occurred due to a technical fault. They assured that necessary steps were being taken to resolve the issue and resume normal services as soon as possible.
