Unpopular opinion poll:

With LHBfication, GEN coaches are severely hit. They are not decreasing the reserved coaches. So how about cutting out Pantry Car and adding one more GEN?
PC is needed when trains don't stop for a long distance.
But

for trains which stop at fairly shorter distances, people can buy from PF vendors.
Just see unreserved passengers, they don't get PC food, but they manage to buy food/water from PF vendors or just sundry vendors selling food wherever the train stops. They too travel travel for long distances.
Sometimes the GEN coach is so packed, they just manage to buy whoever sells near the accessible window, since they can't even get out of the coach.
Reserved passengers can get down and buy or if they can't, then buy from the food sellers who come near the window.

Anyone agrees?

It's just a coach where people travel. Not a bubble to isolate them from reality. If they want food and there is no PC, they have to get down and buy food.
Ok, forget long distance train, but imagine ICEs with AC coaches - CC . There is no choice but to seek their own food.

PC food is worst .
Many time they charge more and quality is not appropriate .
eg. Tea of PC ( fully contain water )
.
similarly Local vendor food
...
more...
depends on Various stsn . and overcharging is quite common .
. Solution is to carry sufficient Food , from the source station. itself

if its on main route with availability of caterers... then its fine to remove. But if its going through less crowded routes where there are no enough vendors then PC works. After all... It depends.
