expected to be handled by Mela station of Northern, North Central &
North Eastern Railways during this period.

this period, in addition to provision of additional unreserved booking
counters, it is necessary to offload the booking counters and facilitate
passengers to book tickets in advance.

decided as a special case to facilitate the Passengers that for this Mela
period only, following modifications will be made in the advance
booking period of unreserved tickets subject to levy of Mela surcharge
as per extant instructions:-

(i) If any passenger purchases an unreserved reverse ticket through
UTS from any station on Indian Railways for journey to any one
of the 12-stations in Allahabad region serving the Mahakumbh
Mela i.e. Allahabad Junction, Allahabad City, Naini,
Subedarganj, Rambag, Prayag, Prayag Ghat, Daraganj,
Phaphamau, Jhusi, Vindhyachal, Chheoki and back, the reverse
ticket will be allowed to be booked up to 15 days in advance
excluding the day of journey. For e.g., if a passenger at Nagpur
wants to purchase ticket to any station in Allahabad Mela area
and back, he can purchase the same 15 days in advance, It shall,
however, not be possible to give refund on such reverse
tickets.
