During 2004-05, 9501/9502 Rajkot Bhuj Anand Express and 2081/2082 Ahmedabad-Gandhidham Jan Shatabdi Express were withdrawn due to poor patronization.
An analysis of passenger traffic on Indian Railways has shown that there are several routes or sections on which there is considerable demand whereas on the other hand there are several trains at close intervals. It is, therefore, proposed to review such trains with low patronage and deploy resources where there is greater need. This is a continuous and ongoing process.
The above information was given by the Minister of State in the Ministry of Railways Shri R. Velu in a written reply to a question in the Lok Sabha today.
