The double-decker Uday trains have been introduced with the intention of increasing passenger capacity in railway services on busy routes. These trains will run overnight, connecting major cities across the country.

Antyodaya – For the economically backward

These superfast trains, which will have only unreserved coaches, will focus on transporting the common man in a time-bound manner without burning a hole in his pocket.

    DURGAPUR is the steel city of Bengal. It has no train service originating from DURGAPUR to state capital sealdah or Howrah. If new service can be introduced from DURGAPUR to sealdah / Howrah , can have better service not only for DURGAPUR but can serve from bankura and birbhum districts also. Please give a new service from DURGAPUR in next budget 2016-2017.
