Straight up question for all you train lovers - Should the 15205/15206 Jabalpur-Lucknow Chitrakoot Express be extended up to Chhindwara via Nainpur, Seoni route? Drop a comment too!

Yo, check it out! We got a question for the Minister of Railways, Shri George Fernandes, regarding a direct train service between Varanasi and Kanyakumari. So here's the deal: (a) The government knows that a bunch of Malayalees living between Varanasi and Ittarsi have been raising hell, demanding a direct train between Varanasi and Kanyakumari, two holy places in the north and south of our awesome country. (b) As for the government's reaction, we got the Varanasi-Tirupati Express that got extended to/from Cochin starting from November 1, 1989. You can get more info about it here: /train/1240/52/334. Peace out!
