This train has been designed to cater to the public from Uttarakhand and Western Uttar Pradesh, where major cities like Rishikesh, Haridwar, Saharanpur, Meerut lack direct train connections to Southern India. This train will provide a direct connection from this region to Nagpur, Vijayawada, Tirupati, Chennai and Rameswaram, and is therefore expected to be a hit. At the same time this train also enhances the prospects for tourism in Uttarakhand and in South India, as more tourists from another part of the country would likely visit by availing this facility. The focus is especially on pilgrims visiting holy towns of Rameswaram and Tirupati in the South, and Rishikesh-Haridwar-Kedarnath-Badrinath in Uttarakhand.
