South Central Railway (SCR) has announced that the migrant labour special trains or ‘Shramik Special Trains’ will run on the request of the State governments as per the guidelines issued by the Union Ministry of Home Affairs. Such trains for workers, pilgrims, tourists, students and others stranded at various places will be run only after being duly identified and registered by the respective governments.
