Why INDORE- JAMMU TAWI MALWA EXPRESS is left for extension????? Malwa Express is the only single, Daily and Superfast TRAIN from Western Indore to Northern Jammu Tawi. Then why Malwa Express is excluded from its Extension to Katra for CONVINIENCE of all Passengers from Western INDORE SIDE TO Shri MATA Vaishno Devi KATR???????????
Malwa express should be extended but i think NR have to provide a passenger service for substitute of passenger that run Jammu onwards.
May be we can see the train extended soon after rake is avaiable.

could be due to terminal constraints at Katra to handle so many daily trains. In the list of extended trains, only 2 are daily (SK and mail ) while the others are weeklies running on same slots effectively adding 2 more daily trains. So Katra will get a total of 4 daily trains. Adding another daily train might take some time . Once the appropriate infrastructure is in place at SVDK, other trains will also be extended.
It wd have been appropriate to extend either Ashram or Gujarat SK to SVDK, as so many Amdavadis and Gujaratis find it difficult to find confirmation in few direct trains to JAT, SVDK, and they are the most tourism oriented people besides Banglas.
