Two trains in the same direction within a gap of 1 hour in a highly patronised route. Almost 100% of travellers are migrant workers and here is what happens when you have suvidha Special !!
Suvidha special takes additional 7 hrs running time. Highly doubt if the specials are abale to maintain their on time run !!!
• SL charges are almost Rs 3000/-. This is almost Rs 2000 more than the fare in superfast. Not sure if a migrant worker can afford to spend this much.
No

wonder so many seats still available. Also not sure if it has been advertised in the local language ( maybe Bengali, Odia & Assamese would help)

Yes fair point. But at the end of the day, passenger ends up paying the fare which would be applicable at that point of time in Suvidha isnt it ?? ( Not sure hence asking??)

Ideally, SR should consider replacing 16355/56 KCVL - MAJN - KCVL Antyodaya Express with a conventional rake (with 2A, 3A, SL & GS coaches) and use the released Antyodaya rake to operate a regular weekly service between KCVL & GHY (or KYQ).
As the train is intended to benefit migrant laborers, Railways should indeed keep a check on fares.
It's ridiculous to announce a Suvidha Special at astronomical ticket fares & run it empty on a route with huge demand. Should naturally suspect if it's a deliberate ploy to thwart demands

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
