Railways to Limit Parcel Services at Delhi Stations Ahead of Diwali 2026

In preparation for the Diwali and Chhath Puja festivals in 2026, Indian Railways has announced temporary restrictions on parcel services at several major Delhi stations. The move is aimed at managing the expected heavy passenger rush and ensuring safety during the festive travel period. Parcel loading and unloading will be restricted at New Delhi, Anand Vihar Terminal, Delhi Junction, and Hazrat Nizamuddin stations from November 5 to November 15, 2026, with specific timelines for each station. Loading and unloading at the washing line and stabling line of Anand Vihar Terminal will continue during the restriction period. Passengers will be allowed to carry only personal luggage in passenger coaches, with registered newspapers and magazines permitted subject to public safety considerations.
