Citing poor patronage, rly plans to stop train to Krishnarajapuram
* Many special fare trains are getting very poor patronage. 24 berths booked in a special train starting from Bengaluru is a joke.
* On the one hand IR seeks budgetary support to tune of 60000 Crore Rs per year (poeples' or tax payers' money) and on the other hand is hell bent to fleece people by charging extortionist special/Flexi/Suvidha/Tatkal/PT fares, even if trains go practically empty.

Totally agree with ur points...Suvidha and flexi has to be roll back
This train wasn't Suvidha Special. This was special fare/tatkal fare in which price of ticket is only 100/150 more than the Regular Trains. As of now Flex Fare is only in trains like Rajdhani,Shatabdi,Duronto,Humsafar and Tejas and as far I know only Suvidha Trains are not performing well but rest of the trains their ticket gets booked completely recent case is I booked Chennai-New Delhi Duronto Sleeper at Rs.1500 and it was waitlisted ticket of 25
Both Flexi and Suvidha are same Suvidha is only the name of the train while Fares are Dynamic/Flexi. Suvidha Train was only one which I remember was Santragachi or Guwahati train which doesn't exist and is stopped. Only one more Suvidha came is from Ernakulam to Chennai or I think Coimbatore-Chennai Suvidha which was withdrawn later.
