ECR is turning this Mail Train into an Intercity bus...
.
As per IRI TT, this train will depart from Buxar and then stop at Gahmar by crossing 3 stations, then after Gahmar it will now stop at Bhadaura after crossing 1 station. Then again it will cross 1 more station and stop at Dildarnagar Jn... the same thing repeats for Zamania before this train runs decently to finally stop at DDU!

Uff... too many stoppages back to back from Ghazipur District of Eastern UP for this train. It seems that Mr. Manoj Sinha has lobbied pretty well to the RM before the 2019 Lok Sabha elections. Mr. Gangwar may have also got Durgiana Express halted at Bareilly Jn... lage raho Munna Bhais.. now its confirmed that all such halts are political and not experimental!
It seems that Jalandhar is a Congress MP bastion so Sealdah - Jammu Humsafar isn't being provided with a halt and I had read somewhere that Gwalior Halt was also planned to be withdrawn for a Rajdhani train in the past that left its passengers infuriated! Sad to see that IR can never be depoliticized :'(
