Local trains[for Baidhyanath Dham/Dumka] start from PF 4 and 5 which are adjacent/next to PF 1. The station has a paid AC lounge on PF1. Retiring room is outside the main station. Technically, all three stations here = Jasidih, Baidhyathdham and Deoghar have retiring room facilities, but when I visited only JSME was operational and no one was staying at Baidhyanath Dham one. One would need to go to counter number 7 first to approve their booking and then to the 'Enquiry Office' to enter your details. It's a lot of paperwork and corruption is involved. The RR person/caretaker might even ask you for a bribe once you are leaving your room permanently.
Everything...
more... goes for more than MRP in and around this place except for a few exceptions[ even in government owned shops]. The only good thing is the IRCTC restaurant next to the retiring room which has decent food and the lake side view near to the rail station.
please wait...Translate to EnglishThe local trains for Baidhyanath Dham/Dumka start from platforms 4 and 5, they're right next to platform 1. You can find a posh AC lounge on platform 1, while the retiring room is located outside the main station. All three stations here - Jasidih, Baidhyathdham, and Deoghar - provide retiring room services. But when I visited, only JSME was working, and no one was staying at the retiring room in Baidhyanath Dham. To book, you gotta go to counter 7 first and get your approval, then head to the 'Enquiry Office' to give your info. Lots of paperwork and shady stuff happening. The retiring room guy might even ask for a bribe when you're leaving. Prices here are jacked up everywhere, you can hardly get anything at MRP, except for a few spots, even in government shops. The only cool thing here is the IRCTC restaurant near the retiring room; they serve some good grub with a nice view by the lake near the rail station.
please wait...Translate to HindiLocal trains[for Baidhyanath Dham/Dumka] start from PF 4 and 5 which are adjacent/next to PF 1. Station par paid AC lounge hai PF1 par. Retiring room station ke bahar hai. Technically, yahan teen stations hain = Jasidih, Baidhyathdham aur Deoghar mein retiring room facilities hain, par jab maine visit kiya tab sirf JSME operational tha aur kisi ne Baidhyanath Dham me stay nahi kiya. Booking approve karwane ke liye pehle counter number 7 pe jana padega phir 'Enquiry Office' me jaake details enter karna padta hai. Bahut saare paperwork hote hain aur corruption bhi involved hai. RR person/caretaker kabhi kabhi aapse rishwat bhi maang sakta hai jab aap permanently leave kar rahe hote hain apna room.
Yahan par MRP se zyada keemat hoti hai sab kuch except for kuch exceptions[Government owned shops me bhi]. Sirf achhi baat hai IRCTC restaurant retiring room ke paas jahan pe acha khana milta hai aur lake side view hai rail station ke paas.
