Yes it differs. Once i was travelling in Mumbai nagpur duronto and i have got upper birth , lower birth was occupied by TTE. That time i noticed 3 times the TTE went somewhere and came with smell of ciagarette.
Another incident while travelling in mumbai hyderabad express. The train was packed that day and though 90 % passengers in our coach were Ck passengers a lot of people came into our coach and 3-4 beggers started to smoke near Bathrooms. TTE came and said nothing to them. In seats near bathroom there were lady passengers travelling with family and complaining. But TTE did nothing.
