Indian Railways — general condition of ac first coach

Address:

411016

I happened to enter an ac first coach to drop a relative of mine travelling on 4th november, 2017 in train number 12221 pune duronto express. I was appalled and shocked to see the condition of the ac first coach of such a premium train like duronto. One is paying almost 40-50% more than airfare to travel by ac first and was not expecting an old coach with the toilets also in quite a pathetic condition. Not sure how hygienic were those even though only 24 passengers in that coach will use these 4 toilets. I dont think the condition of that old ac first coach was anyways near the expectation of the most premium class of travel that indian railways can offer. Atleast in premium trains like duronto and rajdhani request the authorities to ensure a clean new ac first coach especially when the travel times are 16 -27 hours... So that people keep travelling in trains and not shift to air travel.
