1- Sultanpur to Ayodhya - 59km
2- Sultanpur to Prayagraj - 98km
3- Sultanpur to Gorakhpur - 227km
(There are hardly any trains on this route, especially 3 intercity trains are needed on this route, one from Bahraich to Prayagraj Sangam, one from Gorakhpur to Prayagraj Sangam and one from Ayodhya to Prayagraj Junction daily)
..
4- Sultanpur to Lucknow - 139km
5- Sultanpur to Varanasi - 143km
6- Sultanpur to Kanpur - 211km
(More trains should be added on this route and especially premium trains and one intercity type)
..
All Cities are not very far, they are nearby. It's a 5-hour journey but there is no facility at all..
Sultanpur is located in the middle. Most of UP cities are within a 300km radius of Sultanpur..

Coaches badha gaye
LKO se BSB/BSB se BRK ICE

It's a very good initiative from the Government, but it could be even better if it connected two more pilgrim spots, Tarapith & Basukinath, and also generated good revenue.... While no Rampurhat has still a direct train to Banaras.

Also, it's a good replacement for #13133# Sealdah-Varanasi Upper India Express. I can't understand why the government didn't think about how to benefit more and more people????

Please reply, everyone.

Yeh bahut achcha initiative hai sarkaar ka, par yeh aur bhi achcha ho sakta hai agar ye Rampurhat se #Rampurhat# do aur teerth sthal, Tarapith aur Basukinath se bhi connect ho aur aacha revenue bhi generate kare... Par Rampurhat ka abhi bhi Banaras ke liye direct train nahi hai.

Ye #13133# Sealdah-Varanasi Upper India Express ka bhi achcha replacement hai... Mujhe samajh nahi aata ki sarkaar ne yeh socha hi kyon nahi ki kaise isse aur zyada logo ko fayda diya ja sakta hai????

Please reply bhai log
