The Samjhauta Express was cancelled for the second time today, even as the rail blockade by the agitating farmers of Punjab continue to paralyse train operations. The '14001 Delhi-Attari Express' scheduled to leave Old Delhi station on October 11 and '14002 Attari-Delhi Express' scheduled to leave Attari on October 12 will remain cancelled, said a Northern Railway statement. The rail route between Delhi-Amritsar has been blockedby the farmers, who have been agitating against the Punjab government over failed cotton crops due to the white-fly attack.
