The most loved fruit of summer season is Mango. But due to lockdown people are not getting to enjoy their favorite fruit. Alphonso mango is the most popular type of mango. But now Mango lovers might not have to worry more as the Alphonso mango, is on its way to you thanks to Konkan Railway deciding to run freight trains to meet the special requirement.
Konkan Railways has decided to run a special parcel train between Okha (Gujarat) and Thiruvananthapuram Central (Kerala) in co-ordination with Western Railway (WR). Dealers from the Konkan are expected to use the service to transport mangoes and other seasonal fruits.
