When was Darjeeling Mail extended? And what was the reason behind this extension?

And is Darjeeling Mail more popular in between Kolkata - Siliguri passengers or "Padatik"?

Both Padatik & Darjeeling mail are extremely popular among passengers of Kolkata Siliguri sector

It was extended because locals of Haldibari NJP section demanded a overnight train to Kolkata as during its ICF days a slip service used to run between NJP & HDB & after cancellation of that slip train in ZBTT they were facing problems . So Jalpaiguri MP requested RM back in 2021 Bengal elections to sanction a overnight train from Haldibari to Sealdah & Railways approved Darjeeling Mail's extension

Agree Useful
Extension of Darjeeling is meaningless.Its an iconic train. They must honour the feelings. Darjeeling means Siliguri only Siliguri. If Rail authority really care about the demand they could start an separate overnight train from hdb. The rational of extension to hdb is similar to extension of farakka upto Balurghat. Votebank politics prevails eternally.

Similarly Uttar Banga express was extended to Bamanhat . It was the only originating train from NCB & pride of Coochbehar but God had other plans with NCB

Uttar Banga extension was a good decision. Dinhata, despite of being an important city, didn't have a train to it's capital Kolkata. Unlike Padatik or Darjeeling mail, Uttar Banga till now has general quota for NCB.
Untiill now, there's another important city in Cooch behar district named Tufanganj that dont have a Kolkata connection. Hope Tufanganj soon gets a new train for Kolkata.
