🔍 What To Expect for Puja 2025
- Indian Railways often introduces special fare trains during festivals (Puja/Diwali/Chhath), especially linking Mumbai to major northern and central cities.
- For Puja 2025, train schedules and numbers usually get announced in August or early September.
- In past summers, Central Railway ran more than 350 special trains, including Mumbai–Nagpur services, to manage peak demand
✅ Recommendations & Next Steps
- Keep monitoring Central Railway press releases, IRCTC Rail Connect, and TrainHelp updates in late August through September 2025 for Puja special train listings.
- If no Puja-specific specials are released, consider booking:
- Sewagram Express (12139/12140) for sleeper comfort and daily availability
- Vidarbha Express (12105/12106) for a quicker superfast journey
- If special trains are announced, book early (Tatkal or general quota) to secure AC sleeper seats during the busy festive period.
🧭 Final Word

- Seasonally operated specials like 02139/02140 have run in April–June but not during Puja so far.
- For assured travel, regular express options like Sewagram and Vidarbha are reliable year-round.
