Few Passengers were asking railway board to operated this train as a single train by connecting Madgaon with Bangalore. Also Bangalore people gets one more daily train to Madgaon.But Railway board outrightly rejected this demand and said this train is dedicated to people of Karnataka coastal and not beyond that.
