There is no seperate Dinhata MP. Dinhata falls under Cooch Behar LS constituency. Anyways demand for extension of this train was much older, even before BJP.came into power in Cooch Behar. In 2016, it was extended to Dinhata but due to lack of terminal facility and small platform, it was not extended permanently. At that time only, it was told by DRM that after Bamanhat gets proper platform, it will be extended to Bamanhat and now that has been done
