What the............. everything seems to be hotch potch in the name of Suvidha Express trains when it comes to the tariffs. Rajdhani Fare, Duronto Fare etc etc.... total chaotic situation being created by IR. They've realized that Premium Train concept has crashed badly so now they are replacing it with another money minting scheme. What's the problem with running Normal Superfasts and Economic AC Bharat Gaurav Express trains? Even the reservation period plans sound chaotic... yeh karo voh mat karo..... ultimately many passengers will think ki bhaad main jake maro.... IR should not take the curse of it's passengers... badduain nahin leni chahiye.... IR is becoming a source of inflation. Tariff has just increased with heightened service tax few days back but the services seem to be the same: Bad Food, Ill-maintained coaches, late running of trains, dacoity and other crimes on unguarded trains and other such crap >:-O
I think IR is confused. Which Suvidha they are going to give to passengers. Premium Suvidha or Plain Suvidha... :)
Savidha as in an option to last min travelers who couldn't secure berths in the conventional cross-subsidized trains by booking on ARP.
I think that it's Suvidha for IR to mint money rather than for we passengers.... bas hamara khoon choosna baaki hain :-(
