fact about this train:
poorly maintained,you may find no water in most of the chair cars, including the executive class(sometimes). coaches are not well maintained, Stinking Lavatory and on board housekeeping is very poor as its not professionals who are entrusted with the job.The food supplied on board was of average quality, and as heaters in two CC were dead, it takes time to serve Lunch/ Dinner , which is loaded from Gulbarga(for both directions).
Reason: As this train is with CR, CR is least bothered in its maintenance.. Surprising Statement.. but true..
...
more...

Its because thou the train is maintained by CR the commercial is handled by SCR (Secunderabad division).ie all the revenue generated is going to SCR and CR is getting only the operational charges from SCR, hence CR is least bothered in improving the quality. The only solution to this problem is to transfer the rakes to SCR with a turnaround in the current timetable.

the commercial staff (TTE)on board is from SC and they travel from Pune to SC. the excess fare ticket issued by them is of SCR. on interacting with a tte, i got to know that revenue generated from this train goes to SCR.and on further enquiry at pune it was known that CR gets only the operational cost for this train.
