Basically all these things started with the extension of Asansol Chennai exp to Jasidih. But one thing that people from Jharkhand ignores is the changing political dynamics in Asansol and Bengal as a whole. The Bengal BJP lobby currently is pretty strong and they will hardly do anything that will reduce their chances of getting good seats in 2024 and 2026. It can be best understood from the extension of Mayurakshi exp. Birbhum district dont have a single MP from BJP, still the discontent and protest became so high that they had to give a new train to Siuri after Nishikant Dubey extended Mayurakshi to Jharkhand.

please wait...Translate to EnglishSo, like, everything kicked off with Asansol Chennai express extending to Jasidih. But, like, the folks from Jharkhand ain't paying no mind to the changing political scene in Asansol and Bengal. The Bengal BJP crew is hella strong right now, and they ain't gonna do nothing that messes up their chances in the 2024 and 2026 elections. You can see it clearly with how Mayurakshi express got extended. Even though Birbhum don't have no BJP MP, the discontent was so real that they had to give Siuri a new train after Nishikant Dubey made Mayurakshi go to Jharkhand. And when he wanted to extend Maa Tara express to Godda, they shut him down, and all he got for Godda was Sdah Rph Memu. So, it's getting real tough to extend trains from Bengal, especially something big like Agnibina.
