Why is nobody talking about how absurbdly SC has reduced the number of sleeper coaches in the train, and increased AC coaches as compensation ?? When this train was ICF, I used to travel in sleeper from VZM to SPT, as we came from Raipur in 3AC, and we easily get tickets in sleeper. Now, it is a chore to get a confirmed ticket in sleeper (but you can now easily get tickets in 3AC). In my opinion, this is a very bad trick by the Railways to convert sleeper class passengers in to 3AC passengers.

No one can do anything as it's decision if Railwayboard to attach only 2 SL for new LHB trains and reduce SL in already LHB field trains to reduce subsidized SL and increase income by 3AC which is breakeven cost.

Might be. Option is also there to revise the coach composition by taking RB approval. Anyway there is no much opposition from the passengers and passenger associations except very few passengers. Then who will bother.
