Addressing newsmen here on Thursday, South Central Railway, Divisional Railway Manager (DRM), Nanded, S.S. Soni said the train in question is the first to be flagged off among the nine new trains or extended runs that have been sanctioned to the Division in the current Railway Budget. He said other trains in the list are scheduled to get operational in due course.
