Disagree:Weird suggestion
16347 TVC-MAQ express is wrong choice of request for extension!!

16347/16348 is primarily used by Malabar passengers to travel to their state capital city in Kerala similar to 12633/12634 Cape-MS express providing state capital connectivity for Nagercoil passengers!!

extension request is similar to any future request ( if any) for extension of 12634 Cape-MS express to Gudur/Vijayawada which will be of no use,
as both the trains provide state capital connectivity and run with full occupancy throughout year.

I feel a better option would be to extend the 10216 weekly ERS-MAO to Cape and upgrading it to a daily service with suitable overnight timings between MAQ and MAO from Cape.

What I feel is anyways KCVL MAQ Antyodaya has a dedicated single rake if they merge KCVL MAQ Antyodaya by extension till NCJ with NCJ TBM and making it as TBM MAQ Via NCJ it will benefit everyone. AND mainline of VM TPJ will get a daily Antyodaya for complete kerala
