After speaking with the Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Railway Minister Vaishnav set the official opening of the train on October 31 at 6.30pm. On July 19, 2022, a proposal for rail service up to the Udaipur-Himmatnagar-Asarwa section was sent. One of the two trains is Jaipur-Asarwa, due to which Jaipur will also have direct rail connectivity with Gujarat. Till now the train is operating between Dungarpur-Asarwa; it was started on 15 January, 2022.

The broadguage service between Jaipur - Udaipur - Asarwa will play a significant role in enhancing tourism and commerce between Rajasthan and Gujarat. The Udaipur Chamber of Commerce and Industry (UCCI) has welcomed this decision, in an official note.
