As of now, the MST service has been resumed for only 56 trains that are operated by the Northern Railway. The Indian Railways had temporarily suspended the monthly season tickets to ensure that COVID-19 protocols remain intact in trains carrying a high number of daily passengers.
Northern Railway spokesperson Deepak Kumar quoted that daily commuters will be able to use their monthly seasonal tickets for travelling only in 56 permitted trains. Therefore, the price of MST passes has remained unchanged.
Passengers will be able to use the monthly travelling passes in only select trains. Moreover, if anyone is found travelling on a train that doesn’t come under the ambit of the MLT pass, then he or she will be penalised accordingly.
