Circa 2045. The newly-inaugurated Mumbai-Amdavad Bullet Train, that was expected to leave at 5 pm this evening, is expected to leave at 4 pm tomorrow, and is expected to arrive at Amdavad 16 hours later. Passengers are requested to note that the annual Congress of rail blockades got an even higher VHP this year. “Reservations for berths", inside and outside the train, seem to have been more or less finalized, though quotas, including those for “seats” are yet to be allotted. Hence, owing to rail blockades on account of “reservations”, and a war of words over finalizing a name for the bullet train, it’s speed is expected to be slower than that of the Samjhauta Express, until an “understanding” between the warring factions is arrived at. IRCTC is already working on publishing a calendar of “rail rokos” for the next 100 years, to help you plan your journey via a free route, if any. Until then, inconvenience caused to passengers is highly regretted. Yeh bhi Gurjar jayega; Jat chill and have Rail Neer.
