Dooars current situation ?

smnray · Dec 16th, 2008, 18:42

Hi,
We are planning to go to Nimati, Chilapata, Raimatang and Jayanti in Dooars from 25th to 31st December'2008. We shall stay in these places. We shall go by train from Delhi. But I am hearing news report about a possible strike in Dooars from 22nd Dec. Does anyone know what is the current situation there? Is there a chance of rail blockage too? What will be your suggestion to go to these places at these time?
- thanks,
smnray

Well Dooars is big area. Possibly most of the areas are ok. But our travel agent told us yesterday that some possibility of strike in kalchini area ( near Buxa), where we are going. He will confirm today (:-(

Our travel agent told us to cancel/postpone the trip. We are doing the same.

Why are you cancelling it ? Go to Sikkim instead.

We had to postpone, because we have already paid the money. Then due to some personal emergency, I am going to Kolkata!
