Chhath Puja 2023: Chhath Puja starts immediately after Diwali. Chhath Puja has maximum importance in Bihar and UP. Preparations for this four-day-long festival begin several days in advance.
Most of the people of Bihar, who are settled in outside states for jobs, also return to their homes on Chhath Puja. There is no problem with those who have already booked tickets for the journey. Problems arise for those who do not have confirmed tickets.
Waiting lists have started appearing on trains months in advance. As soon as the trains become full, airlines and private bus companies increase their ticket prices. In such a situation, people are worried about going to their homes.
Now if you want to go to the Chhath festival, then either you can wait for the Puja special train to run or you will have to adopt the method we are going to tell you. Actually, today we are going to tell you about how you can reach your home during Chhath Puja despite not having a confirmed train ticket.
First of all, let's talk about the waiting list for trains. Actually, the waiting list for all the trains going from New Delhi to Patna is also full. Now regret has started showing in all the trains. In such a situation, people whose names are on the waiting list need to keep a few things in mind.
If you have a waiting ticket instead of a confirmed ticket, then you can travel by train. Just keep this in mind with the waiting ticket that the waiting ticket you have should be taken from the window and not an online waiting ticket. The online waiting ticket is not valid.
You can get a refund of the online ticket, but you cannot travel with it after it is on the waiting list. After looking at the ticket taken from the window, the ticket in charge will provide you such a seat that will be vacant at that time. You can complete your journey by sitting on this seat.
Talking about flights, the fare for the flight from Delhi to Patna on 17th is being shown as around Rs 12 thousand to around Rs 23 thousand. On November 18, the fare has reached Rs 10,000.
However, the fare for Delhi to Patna flight on 19th and 20th November is currently showing up to Rs 6 thousand which is the closing days of Chhath Puja. In such a situation it has no meaning. Considering the fare of this flight, a person from a middle-class family cannot even think of booking a flight.
In such a situation, you have a better option to travel with a waiting train ticket, but if you do not have budget constraints, then you can book your flight today itself and go home comfortably.
