Re# 6046040-18              
You are missing two critical points here.
1. The Southern states are situated a long way away from the national capital. Any deviations enroute don't contribute much additional distances overall to the whole journey. On the other hand West Bengal is situated at substantially shorter distance, where any subsequent deviations from the shortest route add up significantly.
2. Geography of WB state. WB is big from South to North but comparatively narrow. As such the shortest route from North Bengal to New Delhi would increase substantially as can be seen if you just

use the shortest path link on IRI. Not withstanding other operational hassles such as multiple zonal changes.

Obviously a station with higher earning is being sacrificed for giving a preferential treatment to a politically stronger station.

Disagree:Not useful. Disagree:Not required Disagree:Not needed Disagree Disagree:Dakshineswar is a EMU halt. Disagree:Not really needed
Sealdah - Ajmer Express should have a halt for atleast 2 minutes at Dakshineswar. Previously Lal Quila Express was the only option for Dakshineswar to Delhi, now Lal Quila Express is cancelled permanently and there is no train from Dakshineswar to Delhi. If Sealdah - Ajmer Express gets halt at Dakshineswar, Passengers can deboard at Agra and then catch any Delhi Bound train from Agra.

Ajmer Express halt should be a replacement Halt for Lal Quila Express towards Kanpur. Before 2014, only Lal Quila Express had gone towards Kanpur from Dakshineswar, after cancellation of 13111, no train from Dakshineswar has a halt for Kanpur, Tundla bound trains.

I doubt if anyone used to travel in trains like Lal Quila, Janata, Upper India, Koaa Anvt all the way till Delhi. Those trains used to serve as a connection between intermediate stations.
And Dakshineswar is very much within KMDA. It's completely unnecessary to provide halts to such long distance trains just for the sake of few localities.

1. DAKE is very well connected to SDAH by local train and to HWH by metro railway. Moreover Dakhineswar is very much a part of extended Kolkata City, Bandel and Naihati are quite far off from Kolkata proper and represent a significant chunk of population by themselves.
2. Dakhineswar station is quite constrained by space issues as well, long distance and local trains have to stop on the main lines.
3. Stopping a superfast train originating from SDAH is pointless since it is already so well connected to SDAH. Moreover it would open

up a Pandora's Box for SDAH division as other stations like Kamarkundu will also claim halts and HWH Division will duly oblige as it's a SDAH originating train.
4. DAKE may end up being highly convenient for you for obvious reasons, but it end up damaging irrevocably one of the better superfast train still originating from SDAH.
