This train was purely introduced for the sake of Ex-railway minister Jaffer Sharriff daughter to perform her studies at Perambur and return back to Bengaluru which was the only stop at that time.

Hi, I see a tender being posted on Marikuppam-Kuppam BG line on Internet. Does this mean work on this line will start shortly?

It was for VIT not Perambur- it used to have only 4 halts then and competed with Shatabdi- used to halt at BNC, JTJ, KPD only
In that period the main issue was return always used to be late- it also coupled with a derailment near malur of a goods and for a whole month in may had arrivals of 23:30-00:30 hrs in the then sleepy Bangalore where even getting autos was tough after 10PM
