Kanchan Kanya Express: ডুয়ার্সের রাণী - Joydeep Roy

Stubborn attitude of IR not increase the base fare of non ac pax which constitute about 90-95% of total pax volume is well known. The whole gimmickry of marketing/ packaging of railway services being followed since last 15 years is a direct fall out of this fact.

Introduction/ augmentation of new/existing trains, suvidha/ premium/ PT/ dynamic/ special fares, very heavy ticket cancellation charges, denying berth to half ticket 5-12 yr children, denying break journey to ac class paxs, converting passenger trains into express by reducing few minutes of journey time,...

introducing special/tatkal fare trains instead of regular fare train etc are are just attempts to make up for the lost revenue.

All the above is further accelerating the ever declining market share of Indian Railways, especially the upper class high revenue paxs.
