## People are angry about the Vande Bharat train leaving before Onam.

People in Kerala are upset that the Vande Bharat train running between Ernakulam and Bengaluru has been temporarily removed just before the Onam festival. The train was a popular choice for travelers, especially during the festive season. People are complaining that the train's absence will make travel more difficult and expensive, especially for those who want to visit their families for Onam.

They are also questioning the timing of the train's removal, suggesting it was done without considering the needs of travelers. Some have pointed out that the train was introduced with much fanfare, and its removal now has caused inconvenience to many.

The government has not provided a clear explanation for the train's removal. People are demanding that the train be reinstated before Onam, or at least a suitable alternative be provided. The absence of the train is seen as an inconvenience and a blow to the state's tourism industry, as Onam is a major tourist season.
