RC and GR lag in connectivity to NDLS.RC has only 41 seats in Karnataka Exp and 37 seats in Rajdhani, which is 4 days a week.While GR has only 1 train to NDLS which has around 70 seats (including seats in all classes). While UBL has a daily connectivity to NDLS by GOA link, biweekly KSK (12629/30) and weekly MYS - NZM Swarn Jayanti Exp. Biweekly 12629/30 serves UBL/BGM/PUNE. This biweekly train would serve RC/GR/SUR. This combination (12629/30 & 22685/86) would become a perfect Karnataka Sampark Kranti, serving more parts of Karnataka. Also by running on this route, 2 loco reversals can be reduced (PUNE/DD). Also running time from YPR - DD can be cut down by 5 hrs from its present timings.

The respective sampark kranti should serve home zone more. Even if its not diverted it should have more halts in KARNATAKA. ASK,RRB should be added. TNSK,APSK,KeSK has lot of stoppings in its home state. This route has only two trains to the national capital . Swaran jyanthi is fulfilling the need here. This train has less stoppages on this route.
