Pune is one of Maharashtra's leading centres for education, information technology and industry, attracting students, professionals and entrepreneurs from across the country. On the other hand, Shirdi, the sacred abode of Shri Sai Baba, is among India's most prominent pilgrimage destinations, welcoming lakhs of devotees every day.
The new Pune–Sainagar Shirdi Express will provide devotees from Pune and surrounding areas with a safe, affordable and comfortable travel option. The service is expected to particularly benefit senior citizens, families and group travellers. It will also make it easier for residents of Ahilyanagar and the Shirdi region to access higher educational institutions and advanced healthcare facilities in Pune.
Additionally, the train service is expected to boost the local economy by benefiting hotels, transport services and local businesses in Shirdi through increased tourist and pilgrim footfall.
