Suvidha express is a old concept there is no benefit to cry about it high ticket prices now. It was started to provide only confirmed tickets no waiting list no rac tickets. In my opinion suvidha express should have some exclusive features if it's priced on a higher side like railway should include food in this ticket price, they can provide wifi services if someone is paying 9k.

There is a small IRCTC Comesum restaurant on Platform 1 when going west from the entry gate.
Also lots of restaurants and fast food joints are present just outside the station complex.
Upper Class Waiting Halls and general Waiting Halls are also there on Platform 1 and just like the food joints, ample number of hotels are there right outside the station
In summer,

water sprayers present on the sheds sprinkle cool water for increasing comfort.
The station has recently been supplemented with free WiFi from the Google-RailWire Joint Venture.
Ample number of snacks shops present all across the length of Platform 1,2 and 3 and some on 4 and 5 as well.

Auto stand provides services to almost all parts of Durg-Bhilai twin cities. (Be sure to check out the rates because I have had experience of getting 10-15 rupees overcharged)
All trains originating from Durg depart mostly from Platform 4 and 5 and MEMU/DEMU services originate from Platform 6 which is basically a sidekick of Platform 1 :P

Durg Junction has Wifi facility but it is very difficult to use.
In Durg Junction, all the shops sell their goods at higher rates and no official does anything on this. ЁЯЩПЁЯП╗

Speed thrills but kills getting true, is speeding of trains causing this type of incidents and is India still lying behind safety infrastructures for speed trains.

Speed is required simultaneously with safety. Increase the budget to improve safety.
No requirement for Entertainment devices or WIFI in stations. Install only necessary digit pieces of equipment for passenger safety and for Information to passengers.

Government busy in butifying stations to world class and built hotels, malls in stations. Busy in WIFI, Entertainment devices in stations. But neglecting the basics like safety of passengers, recruitment of employees in vacant posts, maintainance of coaches, tracks, signalling, etc.
I am not against increase in speed to 130kmph, 160kmph..but with proper infrastructure been developed before that.
Maintainance has to be in top priority to run high speed trains. Be it maintainance of coaches, engines, tracks, signalling, points, etc. All have to be properly maintained to run high speed trains
...

at 130kmph, 160kmph , because if any 1 of all these fails there will be a huge accident and then at 130kmph, 160kmph we have seen in case of coromandel exp that LHB will fails totally resulting in deaths of passengers. Maintainance in India is always a point of concern in this huge railway network.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
