I couldn\u2019t find any dedicated Kumbh Mela special train<\/strong> operating directly between Okha and Dehradun<\/strong> during the Maha Kumbh Mela 2025<\/strong> period (January 13 \u2013 February 26, 2025).<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udeab No Direct Kumbh Special Okha\u2013Dehradun Trains<\/h2>\n
    \n
  • While there was no special service<\/strong> introduced on the Okha\u2013Dehradun corridor specifically for the Prayagraj Kumbh Mela, several Kumbh specials were operated from western regions like Gujarat and Rajasthan\u2014mainly towards Prayagraj<\/strong>, which was the event location. These did not include Dehradun-bound trains<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • The Uttaranchal Express (Train Nos.\u00a019565\/19566)<\/strong> is a regular weekly LHB superfast train<\/strong> connecting Okha and Dehradun<\/strong>, introduced in the 2000s to link Gujarat with Uttarakhand. It is not a Kumbh-special train<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
