Local train is running in full wave and demand for passenger train is high although.

AS from Agartala to Silchar Kumarghat is also one of the stoppages so much gathering can be followed at there.

Huge rush of passengers were also seen on Tuesday  at  Kumarghat Rail Station.

Already, Delhi-Agartala express train has been started and now people are eagerly waiting for the Kolkata-Agartala express train to be started in state, which will reduce the flight fare for Kolkata-Agartala.
