Vande Bharat trains mein seats khali ya aadhe bhare hue hain, even during holiday season. Unhone argue kiya ki isme bahut cost lagta hai, jiske wajah se average commuters ke liye Vande Bharat access nahi hai, especially economically disadvantaged areas mein. Unhone Garib Rath jaise sasta trains se comparison kiya aur empty Vande Bharat seats aur dusre trains ke waiting lists ke beech contrast ko highlight kiya. Congress ka maan na hai ki government ko affordability ko priority dena chahie aur diverse passenger needs ko cater karna chahie, instead of sirf expensive, underutilized trains pe focus karna.
