Re# 1037429-1              
More such DHR services should be synchronised with new trains mostly premium ones.One such service should be synchronised with Rajdhani Exp ariiving NJP within 12.00 noon.Both the Rajdhanis arrive within 12 noon and a DHR service can be started at around 01.00PM so that various national audience can be catered.With efffective advertising and Co-branding it with Incredible India Campaign can facilitate the process.
