Direct train from Ranchi to Jamnagar

The Issue

Problem
There is a huge Gujarati community settled in Jharkhand ( Ranchi) and many students too continue their studies from prestigious institution like IIM Ahmedabad, MICA, Central University of Gujarat. Since, there is no direct train from Ranchi to Ahmedabad/Rajkot/Hapa/Jamnagar it becomes very difficult for them to travel.

Solution
If the central government start a direct train from Ranchi to Hapa/Jamnagar, it would be of great use for both economy and specially for students to gain qualitative education. This will also be a delight for the Gujarati community settled in Ranchi and vice versa.

Personal story
I belong to a middle class family and can't effort a flight tickets. For two years, I was doing my Masters from Central University of Gujrat, Gandhinagar. Since there is no train from Ranchi to Ahmedabad/Rajkot, I used to spend my entire night at Rourkela station to board a train. It was a hectic and difficult time for me. I still have friends who want to study in Ahmedabad/Rajkot, but because of the lack of direct train, they quit their plan.
