    Before this train was launched, two local trains were running from Chittagong to Dohazari. The government had taken up plans to launch a commuter train on this route in 2021. In 6 February of the same year, this train named Dohazari Commuter was inaugurated through two diesel multiple unit. But due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the train had to be stopped. After the lifting of the lockdown in August of the same year, Bangladesh Railway decided to continue some trains and published the lists of the trains, but Dohazari Commuter was not in the list. However, the train was later resumed on the route. Since the Chittagong–Cox's Bazar line will be launched in 2023, the Ministry of Railways decided to expand the destination of the train to Cox's Bazar.
