It's been almost two months now since SC MP and MOSR announced this train on Twitter but no signs of SCR introducing it anytime soon.
What happened to it anyone knows ?

The new MoSR is not actively involved in introducing new trains. All he does is political stops to VB. Other than that there are no meaningful changes seen in Karnataka’s railway landscape.

read full article... Union Minister announces new bi-weekly express train to Goa from Secunderabad

A new bi-weekly express train (17039/17040) has been announced between Secunderabad and Vasco da Gama in Goa, starting on Wednesdays and Fridays from Secunderabad and Thursdays and Saturdays from Vasco da Gama. This comes after a request to the Railway Minister in March due to high demand and full occupancy on...

existing trains between the two destinations. The train will make stops at several stations including Kachiguda, Shadnagar, Jadcherla, Mahbubnagar, Gadwal, Kurnool City, Guntakal, Bellary, Hosapete, Koppal, Gadag, Hubballi, Dharwad, Londa, Castle Rock, Kulem, Sanvordem, and Madgaon. The decision was delayed due to the Model Code of Conduct during Lok Sabha elections, but was approved after the BJP-led government returned to power.

Goa jaane waale Telangana ke logon ki badi tadad ko dekhte hue, Union Coal & Mines Minister G Kishan Reddy ne ek nayi bi-weekly express train (17039/17040) ka ailan kiya hai, jo Secunderabad se Vasco da Gama, Goa jaayegi. Secunderabad se yeh train Wednesdays aur Fridays ko chalegi, aur Vasco...

da Gama se Thursday aur Saturdays ko wapas aayegi. Train Kachiguda, Shadnagar, Jadcherla, Mahbubnagar, Gadwal, Kurnool City, Guntakal, Bellary, Hosapete, Koppal, Gadag, Hubballi, Dharwad, Londa, Castle Rock, Kulem, Sanvordem aur Madgaon railway stations pe rukengi. March mein Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw ko likhe gaye letter mein yeh bataya gaya tha ki Secunderabad aur Goa ke beech trainon ki seats book karna mushkil ho raha hai, kyunki yeh trains 100% bhari jaa rahi thi. Lekin Lok Sabha elections ke liye Model Code of Conduct aane ke baad yeh baat ruk gayi thi. BJP ki sarkar ke vapas aane ke baad, Railway Minister ne is train ko approve kiya.

Great Great Great Great:.
Looks like SCR has proposed a dedicated biweekly train from SC to VSG in this year IRTTC.
With LHB conversion of 18047/48 planned this year there is a high likelihood that this train may get introduced if SWR and RB have no objections.

Agree
Getting new trains via Braganza Ghat section is difficult both SWR and RB don't even allow a weekly. See what happened to VSG MAS weekly express.
This SC VSG biweekly train is a long pending demand for many years SCR are pursuing it and took a long time to fulfill and only because of SER wants to LHBfy SHM VSG express and for that KCG VSG slip will have to be cancelled besides Secunderabad MP G Kishan Reddy also lobbied with RM for this connectivity.

As of now only thankful to Railways and MP of Secunderabad Kishan Reddyji for fulfilling this long pending demand.

But in future Speed up should be given especially in return direction VSG dep. time should be around 11.00 am, SC arrival at 6.00 am.

Also

SC dep. should be around 2.00 pm and VSG arrival at 9.00 am and frequency increase to triweekly.
