But still can't come to the terms why Purvottar samparkrantI is plying in this route though it has no stoppage here.Samparkranti's concept of home stoppage should be a little different here.Northeastern geography is a little different to the rest of India.North bengal geographically is a part of North Eastern region with same features all together.Also Guwahati serves the people of whole North East not just Assam.So stoppage should be definitely there at NEW MAL JN for samparkranti(that will be region specific).This will also help national tourists from Delhi,North India to come to NBengal directly.Then DOOARS will have a SF connection with Delhi.
