The question is for ER that in same zone both Goda/hsda etc and bgp/jmp etc station is there but ER for 2-3 months given gnwl till bhle and not a single seats were given in rlwl quota also to those stations which is main revenue generating stations..Such a foolish things done by er,after some days there mind got lit up..If ECR would have been there From starting only all quota would have been given to his region stations..In Sampoorna Kranti case there is a political influence for mzp halt and gnwl quota otherwise ECR would have not agree with it as it provides less patronage..!!

Har chiz mein SK lana zaruri hai? Yaha Jmp/BGP/GODDA same division zone hai.

Agree that BGP - KIUL should had been under General Quota from day 1 of this train's extension. As this train was and is still intended for the passengers between BGP - KIUL. Well, at last sanity prevailed in the minds of officials of MLDT division.

As per observation from my recent journeys in this train, 18603 becomes virtually empty between JMP - GODA. JMP gives more patronage to this train than BGP, atleast for 18603.

Yes Bgp pax mostly preffer Vananchal than this
but boarding data changes as per rush/demands also it was in rlwl with 0 seats and seats were visible in vananchal so pax forcely shifted to vananchal which was special fare ...For SGG/JMP etc pax this is only the train for Jharkhand and ER had putted for them in rlwl with no seats..which was very odd decision.

Yes. BGP has one more option in 13403/04 Vananchal Express. Though it takes a longer route, the advantages of Vananchal Express are, it being daily and having comfortable timings at both source and destination in either direction.

On the other hand, the schedule for 18604 GODA - RNC Express is good for BGP pax. But for 18603, the timings are a bit uncomfortable. Even the departure time at RNC ensures wasting half day.
