Even when Barbil - Howrah Jan Shatabdi Express reached Howrah 8 Hours 10 Minutes late yesterday i.e., at 05:04 am today, even then Today Howrah - Barbil Jan Shatabdi Express is running only 1 hour late. So reaching late at Howrah (of course before say 5:40 am) does not mean that it cannot run timely from Howrah for its next run. Please note that being 1 hour late for this train means it is travelling very timely.

Yes, only engine reversal, crew change and refreshments loaded. Meanwhile passengers alighted and new passengers boarded the train and then it started from Howrah.

Gondia Raigarh jan shatabdi used to continously run delayed by 4-5 hrs for around 1.5 years.
Now a days delay has reduced.

I had lodged complaint in Rail Madad for the late running of this train on date - 04/05/2024 as I had ticket for that date. They immediately closed the complaint with the following remarks - "Inconvenience is highly regretted. The train got delayed due to yard congestion at Howrah. However, all efforts are being made to run the train on time and reduce detention as much as possible. Indian Railway attempts to reach you safely and timely. Your precious time as well as feedback is valuable to us."

Got to know this from my father, on 24.4.24 enquiry counter officials were saying 12021 Janshatabdi will depart but don't know when. This was happening repeatedly and people lost their cool. They broke the window panes. RPF had to come to the spot. This has become a daily affair for 12021/22, arrive late, depart late. Can't they just cancel one run and make it on time? And make it run very close to the schedule (if not exactly on the schedule) everyday? Oh sorry, obviously freight is the lifeline of SER, passenger trains are not at all important.

Incompetence will lead to such issues.
Stations with well optimised Operations can handle large traffic efficiently.

Correct. But why is SER targeting only train no. 12021/12022? Is it because it runs to West Singhbhum which is a backward area?

HWH, SHM, SRC and KGP division are not serious on arrival of any train. Any train running on time gets always delayed before coming to HWH. Delhi Division(NR) has improved a lot (even though loads of arrival) but don't understand about SER.

This train has been rescheduled again today on date 03/05/2024 by 1 hr 40 mins, while Ispat Express is running right time. Passengers must stop travelling by this train. I myself have stopped travelling by this train since the last few months. Tata - Gua passenger is better to travel from Tata upto Bara Jamda. Takes 1 third to 1 fifth fare as compared to this Jan Shatabdi Express and generally remains only 30 mins to 1 Hr late, while this Jan Shatabdi Express is almost always 2 to 4 hours late. This might be the most late travelling Jan Shatabdi Express in India now. This train has become a disgrace in the name of Jan Shatabdi Express now.

What more can I say Piyush, SER & SECR as respective zones are least concerned with the plight and state of the passengers!
There is only so much inconvenience that the general public can and will endure. Beyond that their will be serious repercussions.
The present regime has become absolutely arrogant and put a no good Yes-man incharge of the MOR. A regime change is needed so that a fresh perspective is laid out to the general public

More or less, SECR has minimized its activities. If after NGP, a train becomes 1 hr late, max to max it gets 2 hrs late at JSG outers. I have myself experienced this 2 times. After JSG till Rourkela it is worse than pathetic conditions.

My father already uses two another alternatives many a times but it takes more time.

Rolling Blocks hammered the final nail to the already congested sections. Crews are having very hard time differentiating between TSRs and PSRs, now that they are active every 10-15 kms.
I ain't against these blocks. Infact, they have been the best proven method till date to swiftly ensure track maintenance and upgradation. Inter departmental coordinations are all time high. What should have been included is the reduction or ignorance of any loading target for zones during the period. That way profitable zones won't be forced to balance their sheets and therefore could've ensured passenger train punctuality. SER aka 'Passenger Unfriendly Zone' wasn't a slacky or sloppy type ever in past. It always operated passenger trains with aggression.
