I just want to know that when and why has this train no 2277/2278 been changed from a "DURONTO" train to just another Express train of "SUPERFAST" Category ??

Sir,
Factually wrong you are.
In the start, 2951/52 never had a halt at Kota. It was added later on.
Again Surat is the same case, it is added recently.
Just for added information, it...
more...
had a technical stop at Gangapur, which has since been removed.
Yet, to support you, I admit that halt halt at Surat has truly been in the interest and on demand by the passengers and the train had not been running empty before.
Further Kota (Commercial) was added in lieu of Gangapur (technical).
The matter can better be corelated with Sampark Kranti Trains. Stops were increased for both the reasons - Demand as well as shortage of passengers.
Thanks!
