Ballari Jn - Look around and enjoy the station. A sacred place where Mahatma Gandhi once spent 8 hours. - Vishwanath Joshi

Interestingly, I found out that people in Ami are really happy with this decision. They ain't opposing it. On the other hand, people in NGP raised their voice and got 8 sleeper coaches back in trains 12289/90 and 12111/12. These trains have a good reputation and provide faster connectivity to Mumbai. Believe it or not, this train always has a waitlist of over 10,000+ throughout the year. It's always packed from Ami and loved by the people there. Surprisingly, now the people of Ami ain't opposing the BSL division or the central railway headquarters. Even the MPs and MLAs from Amravati have no objections to this decision.

interestingly maine ye pata lagaya hai ki ami ke log iss faisle se bahut khush hai aur woh iske khilaf nahi hai aur dusri taraf ngp ke log awaaz utha rahe hai aur 12289/90 12111/12 mein 8 sleeper coach wapas aa rahe hai mumbai ke liye, yeh train ki reputation hai aur mumbai ke liye faster connectivity hai, almost yeh train har din 365 dinon mein 10000+ wl list ke saath chal rahi hai. yeh train ami se jam packed chalti hai aur ami ke logon ke liye ye bahut pyaari train hai, surprise hai ki ami ke log ab bsl division aur cr hq ke khilaf oppose nahi kar rahe hai aur amravati ke mps mlas ke dwara bhi is faisle ke khilaf koi oppose nahi hai.
