Considering Lucknow-Siliguri is almost nine hundred KMs, will it not be too tiresome on the third day?

I dont think so at all, for the simple reason that pretty much the entire stretch is 4 lane. I have done 800kms in 11 hours, including breaks, on full 4 lane stretches. Thus I dont think it will be too difficult to do 900kms. It will take 14hours at most in my opinion. Slightly long, but very much doable in my view.

Otherwise, one may extend Day 2 upto Faizabad/Ayodhya. This will shift about 120kms from Day3 to Day2. But I am not sure about accomodation in Faizabad, thus I kept Lucknow as the overnight halt in the plan given.
