রামপুরহাট থেকে দিল্লি সরাসরি ট্রেন পরিষেবা চালু করার প্রস্তাব দেত্তয়া উচিত ও যা সম্পূর্ণ যুক্তিসঙ্গত এবং প্রয়োজনীয়। এলাকাবাসী এবং যাত্রীদের সুবিধার্থে এই ধরনের সংযোগ চালু করা উচিত, বিশেষ করে যখন রাধিকাপুর, গড্ডা এবং মধুপুরের মতো স্থানগুলি ইতিমধ্যেই দিল্লির সঙ্গে সরাসরি সংযোগ স্থাপন করেছে। যেহেতু জসিডিহ থেকে এমনকি গোয়ার মতো দূরবর্তী গন্তব্যের ট্রেন পরিষেবা চালু আছে, রামপুরহাটের মতো একটি গুরুত্বপূর্ণ শহর থেকে দিল্লির ট্রেন পরিষেবা না থাকা এক ধরনের অবহেলার ইঙ্গিত দেয়। এটি শুধু যাত্রীদের সুবিধা নয়, এই অঞ্চলের আর্থ-সামাজিক উন্নতির জন্যও অত্যন্ত গুরুত্বপূর্ণ।

It was initially proposed via Nabadwip Dham , Azimganj , Barharwa , Sahibganj as known from a leaked document last year but Nishikant Dubey wanted it to run via Dumka & after that via Dumka was approved by Railway Board.

The doubling of New Farakka - Bandel section was completed on March 2023 & after that no major increment is observed in this route till now. One premium train should run in this route atleast once a week either towards NJP or towards BGP

Need to extend this train upto Jogbani(JBN) Because there are only one train(tri-weekly) from Jogbani to Kolkata(via- KIR, MLDT, NFK, RPH, BHP, BWN, NH) It will be very helpful for the people of Jogbani, Forbesganj, Purnea and BAK loop line(JRLE, AZ, KWAE, NDAE, BDC) to reach Howrah at morning.
This train, 15711 currently running as a weekly train, if it extended upto Jogbani then it's frequency also need to increase(tri-weekly at least).
