According to a statement issued by the Ministry of Railways, 335 trains lost punctuality due to weather accounts. Moreover, 88 trains were cancelled, 31 diverted and 33 short-terminated. This has left the passengers upset.
As per the India Meteorological Department (IMD), a very dense fog was observed in most parts of Northern India, in many parts of Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh, Delhi, Western Uttar Pradesh and in isolated pockets over Jammu Division and northwest Rajasthan. Similarly, dense fog was observed in Eastern Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and Sub-Himalayan West Bengal. Moderate fog was reported in isolated pockets over northwest Madhya Pradesh and Tripura.
