New Delhi (NVI): A media report claims that all the trains have been canceled till March 31.
The Fact Check Unit of the Press Information Bureau (PIB) has investigated the report and found it to be old and said that Railway Ministry has not taken this decision.
It further stated that it is old news that is being shared in the wrong context.
Debunking the fake news, PIB took to Twitter and wrote in Hindi, “It is being claimed in a news that all the trains have been canceled till 31 March.
#PIBFactCheck: This news is old. @RailMinIndia has not taken any decision to cancel the train till 31 March 2021. This old news is being shared in the wrong context.”
एक खबर में दावा किया जा रहा है कि 31 मार्च तक सभी ट्रेनें रद्द कर दी गई हैं। #PIBFactCheck: यह खबर पुरानी है। @RailMinIndia ने 31 मार्च, 2021 तक ट्रेन रद्द करने का यह फैसला नहीं लिया है। इस पुरानी खबर को गलत संदर्भ में साझा किया जा रहा है। pic.twitter.com/YcZ8Za9Vj1
