Are major cities on busy mainline sections being ignored?

Let's take Uttar Pradesh as an example, as it has some of the most congested and high-speed rail sections, as well as numerous large cities and small towns.

Aligarh and Bareilly, in terms of population, are larger than Gorakhpur. However, while Gorakhpur enjoys several dedicated trains to destinations like Mumbai and South India, Aligarh and Bareilly have no daily trains to these regions. Residents from Aligarh and Bareilly are expected to travel to New Delhi or Lucknow to catch these trains.

2) You may have heard of stations like "Shahjahanpur" on the Bareilly-Lucknow route or "Firozabad" on the Delhi-Kanpur route and might have dismissed them as small-town stations. However, both Shahjahanpur and Firozabad are classified as Nagar Nigams (tier 2), yet they lack sufficient train stoppages and essential connections to places like Mumbai and South India. In contrast, Ballia, a smaller Nagar Palika (tier 3), has a dedicated daily train to Mumbai, a tri-weekly dedicated train to Mumbai and trains towards South India and Gujarat coming from just one station before (Chhapra)

3) Mirzapur, which is a Mandal (administrative division covering multiple districts), holds more official importance than many other districts. Yet, Mirzapur has access to only three major superfast trains to Delhi: Sampoorna Kranti, Purushottam, and Mahabodhi. Tickets for these trains are often difficult to secure as they are already full upon reaching Mirzapur. Meanwhile, Ghazipur, despite not being a Mandal, enjoys the benefit of a dedicated six-day-a-week train to Delhi, along with three additional trains to Delhi that come from Ballia (just one station before)

This disparity raises questions about the allocation of train services to different regions and while I've no problem with stations getting trains on not-so-busy routes (infact stations like Ballia, Ghazipur, Gorakhpur might need even more trains to other stations). It's important to consider the demand of stations on mainline/busy routes too.
