importance of the train in connecting the region to Howrah and other destinations, boosting tourism, and enhancing economic opportunities. Dubey also highlighted the improved connectivity provided by the train and the ongoing efforts to double the railway line, which will further enhance the region's transportation infrastructure. Nalin Soren, Dumka's MP, also expressed his gratitude to PM Modi for the gift of the Vande Bharat Express. However, he pointed out the high cost of the train service, which might limit access for the less privileged. He also urged the government to introduce a train service from Dumka to the national capital and to reinstate the train service between Palasthali and Andal. Sita Soren, former MLA of Jama, criticized the state government for their lack of development efforts and highlighted the need for better infrastructure, including electricity and roads, for the region to truly benefit from the Vande Bharat Express. She also accused the state government of neglecting the needs of the people and focusing solely on self-enrichment.

ki. Unhone yeh bhi kaha ki train se region ka Howrah aur aur jagahon se connection badhega, tourism badhega aur economic opportunities badhegi. Dubey ne train se aane wali improved connectivity aur railway line ko double karne ki ongoing efforts par bhi zor diya, jisse region ki transport infrastructure aur bhi strong hogi. Dumka ke MP Nalin Soren ne bhi PM Modi ka Vande Bharat Express dene ke liye dhanyavaad kiya. Lekin unhone train service ki high cost ki baat bhi ki, jisse gareeb logon ka safar mushkil ho sakta hai. Unhone government se Dumka se national capital tak train service start karne ka aur Palasthali aur Andal ke beech train service ko phir se start karne ka bhi request kiya. Jama ki former MLA Sita Soren ne state government ko unke development efforts ke liye criticism ki aur region ko Vande Bharat Express se sachmuch mein benefit hone ke liye behtar infrastructure, jaise ki electricity aur roads ki zarurat par zor diya. Unhone state government par logon ki jarooraton ko ignore karne aur sirf khud ko khush karne ka arop bhi lagaaya.
