Maitree Express: মৈত্রী এক্সপ্রেস - দুই বাংলার সংস্কৃতি ও ভাতৃত্বের মেলবন্ধন - Joydeep Roy

I request the Admins to please update all the relevant details / TIME TABLE of Train No. 13345 (Singrauli to Varanasi Intercity Express) and Train No.13346 (Varanasi to Singrauli Intercity Express). The train was running as a trial for 3 months from Ist April to 30th June. After a overwhelming response and pressure of the public, this train has bee regularised w.e.f. Ist July as per announcement done by Hon'ble the then Railway Minister Ms.Mamta Banerjee in her Railway Budget Speech presented in Lok Sabha. This train has an outstanding response from Singrauli which covers all the Passengers from Singrauli(MP), Shaktinagar (UP), Vindhyanagar, Projects/Units of Norther n Coalfields Limited (Amlohri, Nigahi, Jayant, Dudhichua, Khadia, Bina, Kakri, Krishnashila, Block-B, Jhingurda), Anpara(UP), Renusagar(UP), Bargwan (MP).

one disadvantage of this Train for which each and every Singraulians should be united and raise their voice to GM, ECR, Hazipur and DRM, Dhanbad is to add the EXECUTIVE CHAIR CAR or as a special approval AC-III/II Tier Sleeper.
Another voice to be raised is to extend this Train to Gorakhpur Junction so as to cater to the journey needs of peoples of Gorakhpur. Many persons of Gorakhpur (UP) are residing and working in this Coal/Energy Belt. There is no daily Train after 12.30 PM (Dadar) from Varanasi till 5.00 PM (Krishak Express). So this Train will be a great advantage for persons of Gorakhpur if it is put up / extended to run from Varanasi during the timing of 1.00 PM to 4.00 PM.
