ir should have stoppped this train way before.it was all foolishness of then railway minister mamta banerjee to start a dd for her home state.eastern india is not like south or western india.eastern india is less developed and a financially poor region compared to other parts of india.maore than that alredy a shatabdi exp is running btwn hwh-rnc on same route.basically dhanbad is a very small town for a train like dd.now only two choice are reamining either permanently stop it or extend tiil gaya /bokaro and see patronage for 6 months.it would be better to run a normal daily exp between howrah and bokaro.
