Current Status
After the inauguration of Anand Vihar Terminal, the train was scheduled to originate/terminate at Anand Vihar Terminal (ANVT), but the plan was abandoned due to its glorious past when it was the only premiere train in absence of 12309/12310 RJBP NDLS Rajdhani Express and Sampoorna Kranti Express and Vikramshila Express.
The train has lost its significance thanks to some petty politics of appeasements by railway ministers. Since its extension to Islampur the train is delayed regularly be it up route or down route. In earlier days before 2000, it used to be a premiere train on the Patna New Delhi Section with bang on time Schedule.

Famous quotes containing the words current and/or status:
“We all participate in weaving the social fabric; we should therefore all participate in patching the fabric when it develops holes—mismatches between old expectations and current realities.”
—Anne C. Weisberg (20th century)
“[In early adolescence] she becomes acutely aware of herself as a being perceived by others, judged by others, though she herself is the harshest judge, quick to list her physical flaws, quick to undervalue and under-rate herself not only in terms of physical appearance but across a wide range of talents, capacities and even social status, whereas boys of the same age will cite their abilities, their talents and their social status pretty accurately.”
—Terri Apter (20th century)
