Aajkal new trains only Jasidih, madhupur ko hi milta hai.... Baki desh k liye Extension ya Diversion ka hi mahol hai. New trains nehin milta hai. Extension karwalo baas yehi sare MP s ka demand hai, new trains mangne ki himmat e nehin hai kisi mein aur milta bhi nehin hai RM se.
Aise political reasons k wajah se extension, diversion karke bohut sare acche trains ko barbaad kar diya yeh politicians.

Not a good move,as this was the only daily train between Howrah and Ahmedabad. Instead a direct train from Howrah to Jodhpur via Nagpur, Ratlam and Ajmer could have been operated.The route to Ajmer via Ahmedabad and Surat is longer and will take more time as well

Re# 5096793-16              
** This train is highly patronized and any extension is not desirable
** Extension westwards in the state of Gujrat like Bhavnagar/ Gandhidham/ Somnath/ Dwarka-Okha can only be justified
** The extension to JP/JU is joke and an indication of the awareness/ wisdom of the honourable elected representative.
