Vinod Kumar informed that the train operations were launched during his tenure as the Karimnagar Parliament member.

Due to unavailability of the train, people who live in erstwhile Karimnagar and Nizamabad districts were being denied to travel directly to Mumbai at an affordable fare.

Considering these issues and requests from public, he urged the Railway Board chairman to resume the train operations at the earliest.
