All special Rajdhani, mail and express trains that started operating from May 12 and June 1, however, will continue to operate.
The latest round of cancellations of trains comes in the background of a surge in Covid-19 cases across the country.

On Tuesday, the Railways had announced cancellation of all tickets booked for regular trains on or before April 14 and said it would soon start generating refunds for those tickets.
Trains were cancelled across the country due to the lockdown that began on March 25 to contain the spread of coronavirus. It was only on May 16 that restricted passenger train services resumed in the country.
