Why do trains get rescheduled or cancelled?

Despite being the fourth largest rail network in the world, India has had maintenance and operational issues for the longest time. Hence, this could be a major reason for India's delayed, cancelled and rescheduled trains.

Also, the ever-changing weather in different parts of the country causes water-logging and other technical issues. Hence, the Indian Railways cancels trains to prevent risk.
