Interesting: Rajdhani Express travelled to Ranchi with a single passenger onboard

Any co-incidence that the train ran with a single pax only because she's a lawyer?

Good on Railways part that they did not force the passenger to get off the train, in fact arranged for passenger's security. Had it been any European railways , this effort would have been lauded. Poor reporting by the reporter, IMO.

This reporter should actually glorify IR for arranging alternate means of transport for the stranded passengers and still allowed the lone passenger to complete the journey with couple of GRP guards.

As quoted above it was for RPBC they had to take the rake to Ranchi and thus helped this passenger. Passenger may feel that he/she had made IR to act on her wish, but, it’s the other way around.

The train had to finally reach it's final destination as Ranchi Rajdhani takes two different routes to Delhi. Its stoppage at this station would have meant that it stood cancelled for next journey. So either way it had to come to Ranchi with or without passenger.
