Anticipating 90 to 95 lakh passengers on December 6, Mahaparinirvan Diwas, the Government Railway Police (GRP) has announced route diversions at Dadar railway station. The move aims to manage the surge of devotees gathering to pay tribute to Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar on his death anniversary.

According to the GRP, “In light of this large-scale congregation at and around central and western railway station premises at Dadar, the movement of railway commuter traffic will be affected on adjoining pedestrian bridges. Last year, we implemented similar diversions successfully. We are putting them in place again to ensure passengers can travel with ease,” a GRP official told mid-day.
