Re# 6009625-4              
Present CC is 22 coaches only. There are 2 HCPV coaches attached on daily basis. Just that they haven't mentioned in CC.

My point of view -
They should reduce HCPV coach to 1. or remove both & replace with AC coaches. Win win situation for both Sleeper & Ac travellers.

Re# 6009625-5              
Isko 2 HCPV coaches attach karte hai daily, wo nikal dena chahiye aur Ac coaches mein Replacement kiya to aacha hai. Agar nahi hota to atleast HCPV reduce kare to 1 & 1 GS ko bhi Ac coach me replacement kare to fir bhi thik hai.
