Has ER released an official notification regarding the permanent cancellation of 13049/13050 and few other super-slow Express trains as some YouTube videos have mentioned??

instead of cancelling 13049/50, it must be made as 20349/50 & speeded up by 10.5 hrs.

The unofficial videos state that IR has taken this decision to permanently cancel such trains because their average speeds are very slow & they also block smooth flow of superfast trains that trail them en route.
.
I was thinking that 13049/13050 will be LHBfied since its rakes look quite old and approaching their expiry date on completing 25 years of service life. But here I see IR having different plans with respect to train running in India. Speeding up of numerous trains seems to be their motto :-P :)
