Who says South India does not have Gatimaan. It is called Vaigai Express. - Thamizh Maran

They have not decreased the AC coaches but added SL and GS and made it an ordinary SF. They should have left GS and added 5SL for both Cocanada and SPL with RSA and kept fully reserved train like Andhra Pradesh express. Regarding priority even Duronto makes way to opp Intercity and VB then picks up speed, so least to talk about it when Godavari Gautami are also running late everyday from past one year.
