When such a big shot officer like DRM Lucknow sends out such a wrong tweet from their official Twitter/X account, what else can be said about the railways, man?
Peep this tweet
here.
This tweet clearly says that on 11th June, the 04296 Kanpur Lucknow MEMU would be rescheduled by 180 minutes (3 hours) from Kanpur Central.
But today, on 11th July, this MEMU is running right on time without any exceptions.
Because of this tweet, who knows how many passengers were inconvenienced. Many passengers living near small stations close to Unnao had to rush by road to Unnao to catch the Chitrakoot Express.
I myself came to Unnao with many others to catch the Chitrakoot Express because of DRM Lucknow's tweet that the MEMU was 3 hours late.
But after buying an Express ticket worth 35 bucks, I found out that the MEMU had already left from Kanpur.
This is kinda shady business by the railways, man.
First, I had to spend 30 bucks to get to Unnao, and then I had to spend another 35 for an express ticket here.
If DRM Lucknow hadn't tweeted this, my job would have been done in just 15 bucks.
I didn't have a problem spending the extra cash.
The problem was the morning rush where I had to wake up early and rush to Unnao to catch the CHITRAKOOT EXPRESS.
