For the safety and smooth evacuation of such a large number of devotees, Prayagraj Railway Division has implemented a special plan and some restrictions for all the stations of the city. These restrictions will be applicable one day before and two days after the bathing festival of Mauni Amavasya.
On the day of the bathing festival of Mauni Amavasya, entry to Prayagraj Junction will be given only from the city side, platform number-1. Exit will be only from the Civil Lines side, platform number 6. Reserved passengers, who have already reserved tickets, will be given separate entry from Gate No. 5 of the city side.
While unreserved passengers will be given entry through direction-wise color coded shelters. For tickets, there will be arrangements for unreserved ticket counters, ATVMs and mobile ticketing in the shelters itself. To manage the additional pressure of the crowd, a holding area has been constructed in Khusro Bagh to accommodate one lakh people.
