The festival of Diwali is near, hence there is going to be a lot of crowd in the trains. Passengers travelling by train often worry that their luggage might be stolen. Because the train is so crowded that people do not even realize and their luggage gets stolen.
Many times it happens that people go to the bathroom for 3 to 4 minutes and in that time their belongings go missing. Now it is festival time, so people take many special things for the family while going home. If you too are planning a travel trip this Diwali, then this article is useful for you.
Take care of your belongings like this
- In earlier times, while travelling by train, people used to carry an iron chain with them which had a lock on it. But nowadays people have done this less. But if you are travelling by train on Diwali, then you should take this with you. This chain is tied to the seat which is not easy to break?
- If you are travelling by train during festivals, then keep in mind that you keep your luggage under the seat. Because it is a bit difficult for any thief to remove items from the seat. Many times people leave their luggage in the middle of the seat. This way it would be easier for a thief to pick up your bag.
- If you are carrying gold jewellery with you, then do not keep those bags under the seat. Try to keep him sleeping on the seat with you. You should not keep your important things in the bag kept under the seat.
- In today's time, many such bags have started coming in which the option of lock is available. You can also choose this type of bag for your travel.
