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:
“Beneath the azure current floweth;
Above, the golden sunlight glows.
Rebellious, the storm it wooeth,
As if the storms could give repose.”
—Mikhail Lermontov (1814–1841)
“A genuine Left doesn’t consider anyone’s suffering irrelevant or titillating; nor does it function as a microcosm of capitalist economy, with men competing for power and status at the top, and women doing all the work at the bottom.... Goodbye to all that.”
—Robin Morgan (b. 1941)
