Most of the time passengers who travel almost every day to shorter-distances complain that trains having two to three general class coaches are insufficient to meet the rush.
“In 26 trains we have started the facility through which a passenger having general class ticket can board selected sleeper coaches by paying nominal charge for second class sitting. This will benefit passengers travelling to shorter distances,” said Abhay Sharma, chief public relations, NWR on Thursday.
