Gujarat Floods: Western Railway Cancels 16 Trains Due To Severe Waterlogging In Vadodara Division
Gujarat: Heavy rainfall in Gujarat has led to severe disruptions in daily life and transportation, particularly impacting the Western Railway. Torrential rains on Monday and Tuesday have resulted in a flood-like situation across several parts of the state, forcing railway authorities to cancel and divert multiple trains to ensure public safety. Waterlogging near various stations in the region has exacerbated the situation, causing major disruptions in train services.
Western Railway cancelled 16 trains on Wednesday due to severe water logging in the Vadodara division. Earlier 12 trains were cancelled on Tuesday due to waterlogging at Bajva station.
The worst-affected regions are in South Gujarat, including Valsad, Tapi, Navsari, Surat, Narmada, and Panchmahal districts. These areas are experiencing severe flooding, with knee-deep water in many places, leading to widespread chaos. The waterlogged streets have not only impeded residents’ daily activities but have also caused massive traffic congestion, making it difficult for people to commute or carry out their routine tasks.
In response to the adverse weather, several train services scheduled for August 28 have been cancelled. Specifically, the following trains scheduled for August 28 were cancelled due to waterlogging at Bridge No.561 in the Vadodara Division.
