Dekho, yahaan sirf sach bataya ja raha hai!

1. Yeh route VB ke liye bilkul bhi suitable nahi hai. Par phir bhi isko introduce kiya gaya.

2. ASN tak extension jaan boojhkar mushkil banaya gaya hai DGHR station tak chala kar! JSME tak chalana toh bilkul thik tha.

3. KG line se chalana is disaster ka recipe tha, ise hamesha PNBE se chalana chahiye tha. Pehle toh yeh train chalne hi nahi di jaani chahiye thi.

4. ASN tak extend karne ki koshish DGHR ki incapability ko VB fill karne ke liye blame shift karne ka beyas arth rakhta hai! Kya tum log ASN ke logo ko bewkuf samajhte ho? Kon jaan boojhkar ek convoluted, lamba aur bahut slow route le kar BSB jayega?

5. BSB aur DGHR ke pilgrimage aur devotee bases bilkul alag hai.
Sach mein, is sector mein VB ki koi demand nahi hai.

6. Agar HWH-BSB VB chalana hai, toh ise GC se chalana hoga, aur usse bhi ek bahut aggressive schedule ke saath ek din mein vapas aane ke liye. KG ya main line se chalane se yeh mumkin nahi hoga!

7. Agar ASN extension soch mein hai, toh ise PNBE se chalana chahiye. Is tarah kuchh ASN ke passenger ise prefer karenge. Warna JSME se DHN route se chalana chahiye, is tarah kuchh patronage toh bach jaayega. KG line VB chalane ke liye suitable nahi hai, aur saaf bataun toh DGHR bhi nahi!

I just wanted to say that it won't go to Asansol because it's a special Deoghar bound train and goes to Howrah, so a same-day return would be difficult... that's why I simply said Rampurhat because it's 1.5 hours away and Rampurhat and Dumka will also be connected to Banaras, where trains will be available separately now.
And I can definitely say that Dumka and RPH generated good patronage, something will be known and seats will be filled, and after all, Dumka is the vice capital of Jharkhand.... That's it.

Mujhe bas itna bolna tha ki Asansol se nahi jaayegi kyunki yeh train special Deoghar bound hai aur Howrah jati hai toh same day return mushkil hai... isliye simple Rampurhat ke liye bola tha VB ke liye 1.5 ghanta ka distance hai aur Rampurhat aur Dumka bhi Banaras se jud jaayega jaha ab toh train alag se milne se rahi.

Aur itna toh definitely bol sakta hu ki Dumka and RPH ne acha patronage generate kiya, kuch toh jaan aayegi aur seat full hogi, aur aakhirkar Dumka toh Jharkhand ka Vice Capital bhi hai.... Bas itna hi.

You have been repeating that the KG line is not suitable for VB and Deoghar doesn't deserve one.

This kind of judgment was justified before the introduction of the train. Now, since the train has been introduced, for whatever reason it may be, it cannot be abruptly taken back. Instead, an effort can be made to increase footfall by extension, which is always a viable option and has happened to some of VB's as well.

Out of the multiple options available for expansion, ASN is one of them. But your concern is why people from ASN would take a longer or slower route to BSB/Gaya.

If it starts from ASN, it would probably be around 14:00, and at this time, there are hardly any trains for Gaya or BSB. Most premium trains on the GC line are in the evening. Definitely, there would be few travelers.

Even the ASN-GAYA MEMU has been running for a long time and takes about 8 hours. Do you believe it runs completely empty? It serves many intermediate passengers.

Similarly, if ASN provides even 80-90 passengers for JSME, Kiul, and NWD combined, it's enough to make this a hit.

Look, it's not about shifting blame; it's about enlarging the area it caters to, the way BGP HWH VB has been given an infinite number of irrelevant halts.

NWD has a lot of travelers to HWH, and 13024 is not the first choice. If this is extended to ASN, it can become the first choice for thousands like NWD-ASN, and then they can take any train going eastward.

By the way, ASN is not the only option for extension. With the kind of political backing this train has, I won't be surprised if it gets extended to HWH, but as discussed, ASN is a more viable option among RPH in the east and PRYJ in the west.

Aap bar bar keh rahe ho ki KG line VB ke liye sahi nahi hai aur Deoghar ko bhi yeh nahi milna chahiye.

Is tarah ka faisla to train shuru hone se pehle thik tha, ab jaise hi train chalu ho gayi hai, chahe koi bhi wajah ho, x, y ya z... use achanak se wapas nahi le jaa sakte, iske bajaye yeh koshish ki ja sakti hai ki isme aur bhi logon ko aane ki wajah banaye, iske liye isme badhao karna hi sahi option hai, aur yeh kuchh VBs mein bhi ho chuka hai.

Badhaane ke kai option mein ASN ek hai, lekin aapka yeh sawal sahi hai ki ASN ke log BSB/Gaya ke liye lamba ya dhila rasta kyun lenge.

Agar yeh ASN se shuru hota hai to shayad yeh 14:00 ke aas-paas chalega aur is waqt gaya ya BSB ke liye bahut kam trains hoti hai. GC line pe jyadatar premium trains shaam ko hoti hai. Isme safar karne walon ki gina-chiti gini hogi.

ASN-GAYA memu to bahut samay se chal raha hai aur 8 ghante lagte hai, kya aapko lagta hai ki yeh bilkul khali chalta hai? Isme bahut saare beech me chalne walon ko suvidha milti hai.

Isi tarah agar ASN se bhi JSME, Kiul, NWD ke liye 80-90 passengers mil jaate hai, toh yeh train hit ho jaayegi.
Dekhiye yeh doosh lagaane ke baare mein nahi hai, yeh sirf iske area ko bada karne ke baare mein hai, jisse BGP HWH VB ko itne irrelevant stops mile hai.

NWD mein HWH jane wale bahut saare passengers hai aur 13024 pehli pasand nahi hai. Agar yeh ASN tak badha diya jaaye toh yeh NWD-ASN se jaane walon ke liye pehli pasand ban sakta hai, fir woh koi bhi train le sakte hai jo purv ki taraf ja rahi hai.

Vैसे ASN extension का एकमात्र विकल्प नहीं है, इस ट्रेन को जो राजनैतिक समर्थन मिला है उससे मुझे कोई आश्चर्य नहीं होगा अगर इसे HWH तक बढ़ा दिया जाए, लेकिन जैसा कि चर्चा हुई ASN RPH east और PRYJ west के बीच का ज्यादा व्यावहारिक विकल्प है।
