Ashwini Vaishnaw reviews facilities at newly built Yatri Suvidha Kendra in Delhi

The state-of-the-art Yatri Suvidha Kendra, designed to accommodate around 7,000 passengers simultaneously, aims to improve pre-boarding comfort and passenger flow, especially during the festive season when travel volumes surge.

Speaking at the inspection, Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said, “The newly developed Yatri Suvidha Kendra will provide great comfort to passengers during the festival season, as there is a surge in passenger volume. Similar facilities will be developed at other stations across the country.”

The Yatri Suvidha Kendra has been thoughtfully divided into three dedicated zones: Pre-Ticketing, Ticketing, and Post-Ticketing, covering a total area of over 5,200 square metres. The design aims to decongest entry points and streamline passenger movement.

### Modern Facilities and Passenger Amenities

The Kendra is equipped with a range of modern infrastructure and passenger-centric amenities, including:

– **Ticketing Facilities:** 22 ticket counters and 25 Automatic Ticket Vending Machines (ATVMs).
– **Comfort & Capacity:** Seating for 200 passengers and 18 High Volume Low Speed (HVLS) fans for effective cooling.
– **Sanitation & Water:** A 652 sq. m. toilet block and an RO-based drinking water system.
– **Information Systems:** 24 speakers for announcements, three LED train information displays, and seven fire-fighting units.
– **Security Measures:** 18 CCTV cameras, five luggage scanners, and five Door Frame Metal Detectors (DFMDs).

The Northern Railway undertook the project while overcoming multiple structural and logistical challenges, including relocating ATMs, police cabins, hoardings, and essential utilities such as water lines and optical fibre cables—all without disrupting ongoing station operations.

Additionally, the extension of Foot Over Bridge 1 (FOB 1) was completed alongside the project. This extension enables smoother passenger movement from platforms directly toward the Metro Station, significantly enhancing last-mile connectivity.

Minister Vaishnaw was accompanied by Railway Board Chairman and CEO Satish Kumar, Northern Railway General Manager Ashok Kumar Verma, and other senior officials during the inspection. They briefed the minister on the project’s execution and features.

The development of the Yatri Suvidha Kendra underscores the Railways Ministry’s commitment to modernising passenger infrastructure and ensuring world-class facilities for millions of daily commuters across India.

Pune: Over 10 Lakh Vehicles Fined For Illegal Parking In 3 Years; ₹70.26 Crore Collected In Penalties

Parking Space Crisis in Pune Escalates Amid Rising Vehicle Registrations

Pune is witnessing an escalating challenge when it comes to parking, as the number of registered vehicles under the Pune City RTO has surpassed 40 lakh. Despite this surge, the administration has yet to provide effective alternative solutions for parking spaces, resulting in severe traffic jams and continuous congestion on key roads across the city.

‘No Parking’ Violations Reach Record High

According to data shared by the Traffic Department, ‘No Parking’ violations have crossed a staggering 10.76 lakh cases between 2023 and October 7, 2025. This alarming figure underscores the ongoing struggle with vehicular congestion and the lack of adequate parking infrastructure.

₹70.26 Crore Collected in Fines from Offenders

The Pune City Traffic Police have generated an impressive ₹70.26 crore in fines from violators during this period. This highlights the persistent challenge faced by traffic authorities in managing parking violations effectively.

Breaking down the data:

  • In 2023, 3,11,895 vehicles were fined, generating ₹18.05 crore in fines.
  • In 2024, violations increased to 3,68,857, with fines amounting to ₹23.81 crore.
  • In just the first nine months of 2025, 3,95,513 violators were fined, collecting ₹28.39 crore—surpassing all previous years.

Crackdown on Illegal Parking Zones

Manoj Patil, Additional Commissioner of Police (Traffic), spoke to The Free Press Journal about the ongoing efforts to address the issue. “These vehicles have been penalised for parking in no-parking spaces and causing severe traffic jams on particular roads. Many times, people park their vehicles in no-parking zones because they are in a hurry. Vehicle owners need to understand that violating traffic norms is unacceptable, and vehicles should be parked only at designated places.”

Patil added, “We are cracking down on illegal parking zones across major areas like FC Road, JM Road, and Koregaon Park. Awareness drives are also being conducted.”

Residents Cite Poor Urban Planning and Lack of Discipline

Local residents and commuters believe the situation is a reflection of both inadequate urban planning and a lack of discipline among vehicle owners.

Sagar Bansode, a resident of Swargate, shared, “Finding a legal parking spot in central Pune is almost impossible. People are forced to park on the roadside even when they don’t want to.”

Amit Vibhute from Rasta Peth added, “The fines keep increasing, but there is hardly any solution in sight. The administration needs to create more designated parking spaces, not just penalise citizens. In the Rasta Peth area, many shops dealing in used vehicles have openly parked the used vehicles on the footpath. But police avoid fining them because they pay a minimal amount to the officers per month.”

The Road Ahead

As Pune grapples with rising vehicle numbers and shrinking parking options, the need for sustainable urban planning, stricter enforcement, and public cooperation has never been greater. Without a coordinated approach involving authorities and citizens alike, the city’s traffic woes and parking crisis are likely to worsen further.

Indore News: Truck Transporters’ Strike Halts Goods Movement; 1,000 Vehicles Off Road On Day 2

Indore Truck Transporters Launch Indefinite Strike Over Police-Imposed Restrictions

Indore (Madhya Pradesh): Truck transporters in Indore have initiated an indefinite voluntary strike, bringing the movement of goods in and out of the city to a near standstill. Now in its second day as of Tuesday, the strike is a protest against the police-imposed no-entry restrictions on trucks from 6 am to 11 pm.

By Tuesday afternoon, the impact of the strike was evident across the city. Over a thousand trucks remained parked, with transport operators suspending all bookings and deliveries. The protesting transporters also organized a rally, pledging to continue the shutdown until the restrictions are withdrawn.

“We will keep our business completely closed until the no-entry order is lifted,” said Rakesh Tiwari, president of the Indore Truck Operator and Transport Association. The strike has garnered unanimous support from all major transport organizations in the city, including the Association of Parcel Transport and Filet Owners and the Dewas Naka Welfare Association.

No Written Assurances, No Movement

Tiwari explained that the transport associations strongly oppose the police administration’s new restrictions on key routes, which were imposed following a recent truck accident on Aerodrome Road. “Until we receive written assurances from the district and police administration, our strike will continue,” he warned.

“We are not against safety, but business continuity must also be ensured. The authorities must work with us to find a balanced solution,” he added.

Business Paralysis Across the City

With trucks grounded, several industrial and commercial areas — including Transport Nagar, Dewas Naka, Tej Palda, and Choithram Mandi — have reported significant delays in loading, unloading, and delivery operations. Many warehouses have remained idle due to the halted transport movement.
