Ippudaina Narayanadri ki vesi Paddu ni SCR retain cheyochu but LHB problem avtundi.
SCR want to make a profit over the trains. Hence increasing much number of AC compartments & decreasing Sleeper classes rather than retaining/increasing number of sleeper coaches. Earlier we have 14 sleeper coaches for this train. Later on they increased 2nd AC to 4 coaches and made to run with 12 sleeper coaches. Now they made to run with 10 sleeper coaches only. They are increasing more number of AC compartments.
IR is not making profits by AC coaches. In 3 AC they get the revenue for running and coach costs while ACC and 2AC they have a gap of 15%. For sleeper class the return in just 50-60%. As the middle class incomes are increasing more travellers are upgrading their comfort level to 3AC and they have the highest occupancy in all AC classes so IR is replacing 1-2SL in each train 3 AC and getting return in revenue against costs.
