first ever direct train to Delhi now operational News24 –

A direct train to New Delhi from Nizamabad has been introduced for the first time. The South Central Railway (SCR) launched a special train that will run between Secunderabad and Hazrat Nizamuddin, marking a significant development for the region. This new train has been announced after several decades, giving Telangana’s third-largest town—after Hyderabad and Warangal—a direct rail link to the national capital. Until now, there were no direct trains between the two stations.

Until now, residents of Nizamabad, Kamareddy, Nirmal, Rajanna, Sircilla, Medak, and Siddipet districts had to either travel to Secunderabad or to Nanded in Maharashtra to board trains to New Delhi. While trains to Mumbai, Chennai, and Jaipur passed through Nizamabad, no direct train to Delhi existed until now.

The new Secunderabad–New Delhi Train (No. 07081/07082) will operate via Nizamabad, Basar, and Mudkhed, providing a direct rail link to the national capital. The train will include 1st AC, 2nd AC, 3rd AC, Sleeper, and General class coaches.

The special service was introduced on November 2. The train will depart from Secunderabad on Wednesdays and Sundays, and from New Delhi on Tuesdays and Thursdays. This newly introduced train fulfills a long-standing demand of the residents of Nizamabad.

Speaking to Deccan Chronicle, BJP district president K. Dinesh Kumar said that-the train will fulfill a long-standing demand of the people. After a long wait, the dream of Nizamabad residents to have a direct train to New Delhi has been fulfilled. The special train will soon become a regular service.
