Bhopal Indore is a guaranteed flop, har 30 minute mein chalne wali chartered volvo buses ke passengers vande bharat mein kyu jayenge, raha baat JBP ka to jab intercity and jan shatabdi ke CC nahi bharte to vande bharat kaha se bharegi. Isse acha JBP INDB Overnight ka ek clone train introduce kar dete 3 days a week.

Sleeper se kya dushmani hai tumhari har post par bas yahi comment karte ho ki sleeper should be reduced aur koi topic nahi hai kya tumhare pass, not everyone can afford 3AC ye reality kyu nahi samajhte. Most importantly agar railway ko itna hi AC ka shauk hai to existing trains ke AC increase karne se better hai new fully AC trains chalaykafi saalo se ek bhi humsafar or ac express introduce nahi hui hai aur existing fully AC trains ke na to frequency badhi hai na coaches

1. Any technical evidence to support your statement that sleeper has high operating cost

2. Most importantly there is no alternative to sleeper class no roadways is as frequent, fast and comfortable in comparison sleeper.

Railway is for the service of every class of people not for selective privileged people. The basic concept of any government organisation is service for the people and even today when in every train AC coaches are in majority still you are not satisfied. As far as loss is concerned there are many other loss making projects which is nothing compared to revenue from sleeper.

Fares can be increased for sleeper and it hshould have been increased a long time ago, 2014 se ab tak at least 40% increase hona chaiye tha sleeper ka fare but nahi hua, 2014 to 2019 inflation was not a pressing matter still govt didn’t increase it.

You are also not in the favour of supporting fares of sleeper and you want sleeper to be removed you can’t say both the things.

All this re development of railway stations are a real loss to railways, thousands crores rupees used in this non-technical redevelopment of stations is a real loss and is much worse than this less revenue generated by sleeper. If all this money was used in any technical upgradation it would have been much more profitable. Re development of railway stations where people on an average spend hardly half hour is real loss.

Listen mridul or whatever your name is le de kar tumhari sui wahi atak gayi hai to remove sleeper.

The truth is you don’t know the reality of what is the average earnings of a graduate who is not from a prestigious institution in today’s day, how meager salary a fresher graduate or an experienced worker is being given. In this meager salary one has to manage their food, accommodations, travel to work support their families with a savings equivalent to nothing.

A few days ago you said that if railways are removing sleepers then the poor people should reduce their travel plans as sleepers are burden to railways.

With this logic of yours if fees of schools and colleges are increased then the poor should stop studying as scholarships are burden to government and educational institutions.

So according to you the CSR initiatives taken by the PSUs in India are also a waste of money ?

Infrastructure and rented shops are not even the secondary sources for income and should be given the least priority as of now if all that money was invested into track upgradation or any other technical upgrades it would have better, since many years we have only one 160MPS section i.e TKD to AGC. If all this money was invested for 160MPS upgradation of any other section it would have been way better.

Most important and the basic difference between government and private sector which we all have studied in the school is that government is for the service of the people and private is only profit oriented.

Even if the fares of sleeper is increased equivalent to giving profits still you are not satisfied just because it would give less profit. This is not acceptable.

100% agree. They could have increased the frequency of SRC MAS AC Exp but actually they haven’t increased a single coach for years and instead are reducing sleepers in huge numbers in existing trains. There is a scope of introducing new AC trains but most importantly every major route of Indian railways already have an existing fully AC trains apart from Rajdhanis if those existing AC trains runs with full length and increased frequency there is no need to change the compositions of any other trains.

Migration reduce karne ke liye the respective state government should create employment opportunities in their own states.

Reducing sleeper is not the solution to everything.

Most importantly don’t exaggerate about sleeper

Already people are preferring flights between metro cities and I highly doubt that bullet train would be a success either.
But one thing is for sure that rake standardisation ke chakkar mein log aur railways kahi ke nahi rahenge i.e no relevant profit and no service to the people
