This plays a pivotal role in the transportation network, contributing to improved connectivity and efficiency.

Additionally, it was announced by Ashwini Vaishnaw that the Puri to Ayodhya special train service is set to connect spiritual hubs, further expanding the reach and accessibility of the railway network.
