attaching pics of fare of Karachi express it clearly mentions 6700 pkr which is roughly around 2000 inr but comparing it with ir for 1090 km a normal express train like udz kurj the fare will be around 3300 for 1st ac which is literally 1.5x of pr ac sleeper i know fare might have changed now as this fare chart is from 2021
No doubt fare of First AC is higher in India. Not only that fare of 2nd AC and 3rd AC is also just average and not low.
If we compare the standard fare of different countries I world then it appears that fare of General and Sleeper is really too much low and I don't think that there will be any other country in world which can provide so much cheaper transport .

It might be because of higher gdp per capita maybe that's why there is so much difference same can be said for other comparisons maybe sri lanka would have higher fares than ir because sri lanka gdp per capita is around 4000 usd ,no doubt sl and gs coaches are running at subsidised rates ,fares of sl and gs should be increased by atleast 30-40%.
Sir i agree with you and I can understand what you want to say but comparing india with Pakistan isn't that good,but anyways Indian railways was,is,will be middle class friendly no matter who is in power
