About Uddayan Express (724)

Jayantika Express (Train No. 724) provides the return service from Sylhet to Dhaka on the northeastern corridor, departing Sylhet and bringing passengers back through the haor landscape to the capital. As the return leg of Train 723, it serves the same classes (Shovan Chair and Shovan) and serves an equally important role in maintaining round-trip connectivity on the Dhaka–Sylhet axis. Train 724 is a popular choice for tourists wrapping up Sylhet visits — Jaflong, Ratargul, and Lalakhal day trippers often time their return to catch this evening service back to Dhaka.

জয়ন্তিকা এক্সপ্রেস (ট্রেন নং ৭২৪) সিলেট থেকে ঢাকার ফিরতি ট্রেন। পর্যটকদের মধ্যে সন্ধ্যায় ঢাকায় ফেরার জন্য জনপ্রিয়।

Train History (ইতিহাস)

Train 724 completes the Jayantika Express round trip, ensuring full daily service on the Dhaka–Sylhet corridor. The Sylhet division is one of Bangladesh's most visited tourism destinations and also maintains some of the strongest diaspora connections of any Bangladeshi region, particularly with the United Kingdom. The Jayantika Express pair (723/724) thus serves both domestic tourism and the culturally significant diaspora reconnection journeys that characterise Bengali family travel.
