(a) whether the Railways have recently changed the route of MEMU train No. 09393 from earlier Dahod to Bhopal to now Dahod to Ujjain and if so, the details thereof;
(b) whether the Railways propose to restore the train service from Dahod to Bhopal for the benefit of public, if so, the time by which it is likely to start; and
(c) whether the MEMU train running from Bhopal to Bina is likely to be extended from Bhopal to Ujjain, if so, by when it is likely to start operating ?
MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF RAILWAYS (SHRI MANOJ SINHA)
(a)to (c) Indian Railways for operational expediency and public convenience, operated a special MEMU train viz. 09393/09394 Ujjain-Bhopal MEMU service from 17.04.2013 to 26.10.2014 utilising the rake of 51631/51632 Bhopal-Bina MEMU. However, owing to poor patronage, the train has been cancelled w.e.f. 27.10.2014. As such, extension of 51631/51632 (new no. 61631 /61632) Bhopal-Bina MEMU upto Ujjain is not feasible, at present.
