Your concern should be on MEMU and EMU's services. Which will help the passengers to reach at proper originating station/ boarding station.

Entire social media for the past few days is filled with videos of travellers on trains struggling for space across all classes.
The absolute dead silence on this matter from the Railways and the Rail Minister is only making it worse.

Ironically, years of government amplifying the videos of Vande Bharat (a good service nonetheless) has been completely smashed right at the time

of elections by these scenes playing out.

I just travelled on 11302 (not even on a weekend) from Bangalore to Mumbai, and while I was fortunate enough to be on coach A2, the general and sleeper coaches and even 3AC until Kalaburgi looked like a scene from hell.

Sure, one major cause is the reduction of sleeper/general coaches but this government as per data compared to earlier governments has performed exceptonally on the front of electrification and track Doubling/Tripling - What is the use when new trains are not being added on this newly created track capacity?

How does one manage to mess it up this bad?

Useful
This was required to be highlighted. Reducing the lower classes, not providing proper accommodation to the passengers, and only focusing on profitability rather than on serviceability is a major causes of this situation. Also, if they make a profit and do not utilize the same for educating the people is again proving to be a burden for the society.

Edit: If IR marginally reduces the fare of 3AC Economy. Then to some extent the situation can be controlled.

Fare increase involves social status and per capita income. In these many years after independence, what are all the differences you can find in the facilities and structure of general travel? Fare increase must go with per capita income. Govt. is in a responsible position to uplift those who can't do it by themselves or face constraints from society. Proper utilization of the resources is very much needed. User-friendly infrastructure is required.

Example - 3E fare and 3A fare in every route has a maximum difference of 100-120/-, isn't it illogical?

administration should think of this and should find a proper way to uplift the SL class passengers to travel in 3E coaches rather than forcing them to travel with WL tickets.

Edit: Vote wisely.

Re# 6037221-17              
I believe you are talking about practicality. In 20 years the number of 3A coaches in many trains has been augmented to cater to extra rush. Still, there are many unreserved passengers and passengers with invalid tickets are traveling in reservation compartments. In these 20 years, track capacity has not widened proving to be a major issue.
The living standards of the middle class have deteriorated due to average inflation.

fares should increase concerning the amenities and way of commuting.

Again proper utilization of resources can control the situation but the authorities are least bothered.

How bad engineering can be? IR can ever be able to make sophisticated designs and neat electric engines? See the HOG coupler. Destroying the whole look of WAP7.

There are many other trains with low fares running on this route. Maybe this can be the reason behind it for not making this a daily train.
