Meanwhile, a few days back it was reported that the Mumbai local train services might resume for the public from September 1, 2020, post Ganeshotsav. Announcement regarding the same is awaited, however, reports state that the officials are planning to implement a QR-code based entry at stations in Mumbai. This move will ensure a coordinated entry and avoid crowding, where people will have to follow social distancing. The model is based on the current method used at Metro Stations.
For now, the plan will be implemented on a pilot-project basis, at Mumbai’s Churchgate and Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus (CSMT) stations. A report will be prepared regarding the same, and the necessary decision will be taken then.
