IR Why E - Catering,Onboard Catering is not starting in this train ? They should start it as it is now not completely overnight train Breakfast can be served ..... as the arrival time at Kota is 10:35 a.m. and also for it's return Dinner could be served since train starts from source station (Kota) at 5:55 p.m.

Please give your views in words and elaborate it on this.Pehle it was running till DDN to NDLS and vice versa and the point is true that no pantry catering was there.Absolutely true Agree with it.But now since it is an 11 h 48 m journey in average Indian Railways should now start pantry and catering services in this train.

Ig there is a rule that PC is provided when train is starting before or at 16.00 (not sure though).Nanda Devi is starting at 17.55 from Kota so this rule must be applicable to this train. The timings at Dehradun are 22.45 so assuming everyone has taken dinner and then boards the train so they don't provide dinner and no breakfast in morning time as no PC. Still you can have breakfast from stations after NZM in 12402.

Because there are other trains like Hapa Duronto 12267/ 68 which has travel

time of ~ 12 hours yet no breakfast or dinner is provided as no PC is there. It used to be overnight Duronto for Ahmedabad and then got extended till Rajkot and finally Hapa. So this train didn't have PC from Day 1 itself.
22904 Bhuj - Bandra AC express is another train which also doesn't have PC even after travel time of ~ 13 hours.

This train used to originally run as a dedicated overnight train between NDLS and DDN . Unfortunately , it was extended to Kota due to extensive political lobbying , the only reason was it's layover time at NDLS .

As far as patronage is concerned , it has been , and , still remains highly sought after and packed throughout the year on its original leg of route {NDLS (now NZM)- DDN}. The patronage is relatively less , but fairly decent between NZM- KOTA , considering its timings .

The length of this train is short due to Length of platforms at DDN . The platforms cannot be further extended due to space constraints and restrictions.

As a frequent traveller in this train .I don't feel any need of sleeper coaches is there.

Uttarkashi case now big headache for NHAI, Road & Transport Minister, RB, RM & Indian Govt. Reason for debacle : -
1. Forcefully making Railway line to & Roadway Char dham by ignoring warning of Environment Activists & arresting them
2. Structural Defects in Tunnel Designing
3. Soil Test done hurriedly, criminal offence as Region is 5.0+ Earthquake prone zone.
3.

Bad Quality of Materials used in work.
4. Ignoring the concern of The Construction Company engaged in the project.
IIT Roorkee experts have opined on Improper Soil test, Structural Defects in Tunnel Designing which lead to collapse.

Hence, Rly Min & RB is busy on saving the 41 lives trapped for 16 days.

Regarding your comment on Environment activists, I don't think that we even need to consider the opinion of those since they always remain hurdle of every project.
