To meet the massive travel demand coming in from all corners, Indian Railway has decided to run a special summer train between Ahmedabad and Samastipur from 18th April, 2021. Divisional Railway Manager of Western Railway, Deepak Kumar Jha informed the media that the new train would be a fully reserved one and would run as a special fare train. The booking on this train is currently available for a very limited amount of time.

These trains are most likely to be special trains only. All regular passenger train services of Indian Railways were suspended when a nationwide lockdown was declared last year in March but since May 2020 special train services were started by the national transporter in a phased manner.
