“The trains will run full. Reservations have been made for 54,000 passengers,” said another official. The move comes as India’s coronavirus infections reached 70,756, adding 3,604 over the previous day. At the current rate, India is set to surpass the number of infections in China in less than a week. China’s case toll now stands at 82,918.

Correct your tweets. These are special trains that are plying with limited capacity. Only 15 sets of them. Please stop spreading misinformation.

You better take care of England

Again wrongly interpreted and spreading wrong news. They only allowed special AC trains with limited tickets on selected 15 routes. All passengers will be screened before boarding trains and only asymptomatic can travel. Please hire some good, impartial, knowledgeable reporters

BUUUUUUUUUUUULLLLLLLLSSSSHHHHIIIIIITTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!

It should not become trouble again! Strict advisory should be issued. Unnecessary movement should be totally avoided. Stay Home Stay Safe.

Not All Trains.... Only Few Trains....

I have been to London several times...Peak hours rush is almost same as in Mumbai or New Delhi...but never seen a single tweet from your newsroom on it...change your mindset for India.

Let them die

spray the air in the rows. 24/7 india delhi 1 infected passing that breathes? BOEM.

All of a sudden, all at once, there is this world wide rush to lift restrictions. Has there been a shift in leadership thinking across the planet, a collective aim to develop this “herd immunity” concept without telling us all?🤷‍♂️

Not All Selected Trains on Selected Routes With Proper Social Distancing Norms
