TIL Desk/Business/New Delhi/ Railway Minister Piyush Goyal on Tuesday announced that Indian Railways will start 200 non-AC trains daily from June 1 in addition to Shramik Special trains. ‘Indian Railways will run 200 non-AC trains daily as per the time table from June 1 for which online booking will start soon,’ Goyal said in a tweet.

He also said that within the next two days Indian Railways will double the number of Shramik Special Trains to 400 per day. ‘All migrants are requested to stay where they are, Indian Railways will get them back home over the next few days,’ he said in another tweet.

The minister, who made a series of tweets, urged state governments to help migrant workers, register them with the nearest mainline station and give the list to the railways so that Shramik Special trains can be run. ‘It is an appeal to the states to immediately bring any workers on the road to the nearest mainline station and give the list to the railways after registering them so that they can be taken to their homes,’ he said.
