Chandigarh to Delhi Train Seat Availability Amid Farmers Protest and Bharat Bandh: Amidst the farmers' protest at Shambhu and Singhu borders and the farmers' Bharat Bandh call tomorrow, the commuters are facing a lot of issues in their travel. While the roads are blocked, people are rushing towards railways and airways for their travel. 

However, there is no seat availability on trains from Chandigarh to Delhi for the next 3 days. As per the data available on the IRCTC website, there is no seat available on any of the trains until February 18. All the trains have waiting lists until February 18. The same goes for trains coming from Delhi to Chandigarh. 

In the meanwhile, flight travel has become expensive as the prices of tickets have soared six times the normal price. Although the trains are full, you can still try Tatkal services to find a seat on a train. 

It is pertinent to mention that the farmers started marching towards Delhi as a part of their 'Delhi Chalo' call on February 13 and were stopped at the Shambhu and Khanauri borders due to the heavy blockade by the Haryana police. 

Besides, the farmers are going to observe Bharat Bandh on Friday from 6 am to 4 pm. During this, the roads and highways would be blocked by farmers for four hours which will cause inconvenience to the commuters.
