WISHLIST FOR TRAINS IN THE UPCOMING BUDGET (ODISHA)
==============================================
Direct trains from BBS or PURI to various places in the country are high on the list of priority for people of Odisha
The dearth of train has forced people to change trains frequently to travel to some metro cities
...
more...
#There should be direct trains to destination such as JAT and VSG
urgent need to connect PURI with SVDK (KATRA) and JAT......as lots of people from across Odisha have to either go to NDLS or HWH to get direct train to Vaishno Devi which takes lots of time and hardship to reach the destination.
The HWH VSG train to Goa passes through BBS but it is over crowded
#Increase in number of trains going to CSTM, SBC, SNSI, ALD, GAYA, PDY, LKO and PUNE
#Need a train from BBS to LKO via SBP, GAYA and ALD to benefit people from western Odisha
At present only Neelachal Exp is the only train passing LKO, ALD ....ALD is considered to be an holy city for us if we want to go for pilgrimage, there is no train from SBP thus we have to take train from TATA, DNB or HWH
There is only one weekly train for SNSI,PDY,GHY from BBS and PURI.....there should be increase in frequency
BBS-LTT EXP, BBS-YPR, PURI-GHY,BBS-MAS, BBS-RMM service should be made daily instead of weekly
dekho ab kya hota hai dukh to aur bhi dher sara hai

If NWP-GNPR is electrified then there can be MEMUs from BAM, PSA, VSKP & BBS/PURI instead of passenger trains. An overnight exp between BBS/PURI to GNPR is also necessary !!!
