Chandrasekhar, in the video, said, “I'm getting married to a girl in Guwahati and I, along with my 34 relatives, were scheduled to reach Guwahati by November 16th. We boarded the Ganali Express from Kalan to H, and from there, we were to board the Sarat Express to Guwahati. However, due to a technical snag, the Ganali Express got delayed, and we would not be able to catch the Sarat Express. This was a major setback for us, especially since I was traveling with a large group of 35 people, including senior citizens aged 60 and above. Making arrangements for such a large group at short notice was a challenge. But we received tremendous help from the Minister of Railways and the Railway Department, who made prompt arrangements to ensure we reached H Junction before the departure of the Sarat Express. The Eastern Railway Department also made special arrangements for our transportation from platform 21 to platform 9, making our journey smooth and swift. I would like to extend my gratitude to the Minister of Railways, Indian Railways, and the Eastern Railway Department for their help and support.”
