Indian Railways — Dissatisfaction Regarding Decrease of Sleeper Coaches

Address:8-3-671/103

Sir.. In the Resent period sleeper class coaches have been reduced and AC coaches have been increased in many trains causing great inconvenience. 17015, 18045, 12727, 12728, 17205, Prashanthi Express, Dhanbad - Alleppey, Visakha - Tirupati Tirumala Express, Shalimar- Chennai, Shalimar-Hyderabad Etc.in our region are not good. Moreover, due to the issuance of tickets for travel in sleeper coaches beyond the limit, all those who are on the waiting list are traveling in this sleeper class. More than 200 people occupy the space in the 72-passenger coaches, making it difficult to go at least to the bathrooms. The plight of women passengers is beyond description as some even travel in bathrooms. Fights are taking place in many coaches. Due to over crowding, TTs are also not coming for ticket verification. The date 20.06.2023 I (D. Atchutha Rao-60) along with my wife Jayalakshmi (58) were traveling in Train No. 17205 S-1 from Shirdi Sainagar to Bhegampet on PNR[protected] when hundreds of people occupied the coach. TT also did not come. Due to the conversion of sleeper coaches into AC coaches, the poor and middle class cannot travel in trains. People are showing extreme intolerance towards Prime Minister Modi's government. Considering these circumstances, we request that at least 12 sleeper coaches be arranged in every train, to avoid over crowding and to protect the rights of passengers of reserved coaches.. Sincerely.--- D. Atchutha Rao Journalist & Jayalakshmi Hyderabad [protected]
