Back in 2009-2011, the average speed of this train was higher than current RKMP Vande Bharat despite the fact that is travelled to NDLS instead of NZM

You don't understand, other countries speed up their trains. Meanwhile, IR slows down it's trains. It's a feature, not a bug! Look at Deccan Queen for example, it was faster when it was introduced in the 1930s than it is now. Says a lot about IR when British era trains were faster than current gen.

I agree with your point at an overall level. Even Coro, Geetanjali have been slowed down drastically from the time they were introduced. DQ my friend is a slightly different case. A lot of the slowdown with DQ has to do with increase in number of coaches. 12001/12002 kwas given meaningless slacks from 2012-2016. This in turn led to a flurry of new halts proposed some of which make zero sense
