Re# 5900256-2              
It's running fine with 80-90% on board capacity between Nagpur Raipur everyday after making it 8 coach. Of the total booked seats 100% get down at Nagpur. If extended it will run with 10-20% capacity between Nagpur and Amaravati already Bilapur raipur runs with 30% capacity and extention beyond will make it financially unviable and waste of slot in busy line.

Had an Ultra Short Journey in Bilaspur Nagpur Vande Bharat Express. DOJ: 18th August 2023
Even TTE asked me why was I only traveling till Raipur in EC 😂
Rainy Morning at Bilaspur.
Typical SECR controlling, got regulated just at Bilaspur Outer. Stopped for 5 times midway till Raipur. Got Overtaken by Freight Trains twice to overtake them at next station. Overtook Gondwana Express

at Nipaniya.
It's a total mess and this train has an Ultra Relaxed Run. Maintainence was average, EC was filled with Mosquitos and Staff was running around with Mosquito Zapping Rackets.
There was barely any occupancy from Bilaspur, only some CC's had good occupancy. EC had 12 people including myself. Saw good rush at Raipur for all coaches.
Breakfast was loaded from Bilaspur only but saw it getting prepared for serving just before Raipur Junction.
Was served Tea in Paper Cup not Ceramic Cup.
Reached 10 minutes late at Raipur.

Rajdhani has very poor occupancy from bilaspur, bulk of its pax come from raipur, durg and nagpur. This is particularly due to days of run colliding with CGSK and it having better timings from bsp than rajdhani.
Rajdhani mainly originates from bsp due to mandate of SM at the other end and overloaded capacity of durg cdo.

Now you can feel the plight of CG people very well. IR is drawing blood and sweat from the CG public with buses cashing on each and every opportunity to plunder income. IR is earning bulk of revenue from there and is giving back nothing in return

I have seen what I expected.
What I gathered was even Buses are pathetic here, it took me 4 hours to cover Raipur Bilaspur Strech.
Overcrowding, Stopping everywhere it's beyond pathetic.
Public Transport between Major cities of Other States is definitely waaaay ahead of what Chattisgarh has.

cannot tell you how sad I was seeing this.
Unless you have access to Private Cars or money to to hire one, You cannot define the time when you're gonna reach your destination.
Everyone is sucking blood of people of Chattisgarh.

Re# 5804132-16              
I understand, but Nagpur cannot be the sole reason for such long route.
I think it's about time that route is diverted via Shahdol route for the benefit of Raipur and Bilaspur.
Nagpur already has many Premium Options.

For Raipur Rajdhani via sdl-kmz route to succeed, days of run need to be changed as current timing would clash with CGSK and public here won't opt for premium fare train to witness OTs by freights as the time difference between the two won't be much.
I feel for that route to succeed financially, Sunday and Wednesday would be fine as there is no any other dedicated CG train to Delhi other than the crawler Chhattisgarh Express. But two hurdles would be:
1. NR objecting as it's RSA pattern with Jat/Rnc/Dbrt Rajdhani
...

at Ndls would be disturbed.
2. WCR/NCR crying foul over path constraints as Jabalpur's favourite child MPSK would be trailing all the way to Nzm.
However, both can be resolved if some political presure is exerted like wise cabinet minister from Ambikapur Ms. Renuka Singh did for Abkp Nzm special regularisation.

If this would run from Ambikapur, then it would be the proud moment for many tribal communities.

Sped up on paper, but does it ever translate to reality? That Gondia to Rajnandgaon stretch is way too optimistic.
