As soon as the festival starts in the country, the fare of trains and planes going to UP, Bihar and Jharkhand starts increasing. Especially, at this time there is no confirmed ticket in the train to go to Patna, Lucknow, Gorakhpur, Deoghar, Darbhanga and Varanasi, so the flight tickets have started touching the sky. Let us tell you that at present, confirmed tickets are not available in any long distance train going to Eastern UP or Bihar. In any train where tickets are available, the waiting list is very long. In such a situation, people going on Diwali and Chhath are getting worried. This time, even before Dussehra, Deepawali and Chhath, the airfare along with the trains has reached the seventh sky.

Let us tell you that as the time of Diwali and Dussehra is getting closer and closer, the fare is going on increasing. Due to lack of seats in long distance trains, people prefer to go by plane around Diwali and Chhath, but this time there has also been a tremendous jump in airfare. The maximum impact is being seen on Delhi-Patna, Delhi-Darbhanga, Delhi-Ranchi routes. Airfare on these routes has become almost three times more expensive than normal days.

No tickets in the train, let us tell you on the air fare sky
that between Delhi and Patna on October 22, the fare of Indigo has reached around 13 thousand. At the same time, the fare of Vistara, Air India is also around 13 thousand. Let us tell you that on this route the fare on a normal day is around 5 thousand. If we talk about October 23, then on this day the fare of 6.15 evening flight of Indigo has reached around 15 thousand. As Diwali and Chhath get closer, the fare will keep on increasing.

The airfare reached the sky,
similarly for the Delhi-Darbhanga flight, you will have to pay a fare of 13000 to 15000. The same is true for flights to Ranchi, Lucknow, Varanasi, Gorakhpur and Deoghar. Let us tell you that Diwali is on 24th October and six days after this, the first Arghya of Chhath is celebrated. In such a situation, due to the increase in the demand for tickets, the fare has also increased tremendously.

Significantly, the effect of the increase in airfare is being seen the most on the Delhi-Patna route. Usually, this route has a higher rate than other cities of the country, but this time the airfare on this route has become three times more expensive on the occasion of festival after the Corona period.
