With the introduction of HWH-GAYA VB, it is expected that HWH-RNC SHBTD EXP will loose occupancy. In morning from Hwh to dhn, VB is just trailing behin shatabdi, but in evening, VB will overtake Shatabdi exp and reach HWH 25 mins before Shatabdi express.

Incorrect information. Hindi is widely spoken language and spoken in our national capital area. All languages are national Languages as per constitution

English, alongside Hindi, is one of the two official languages of the central government.

The Constitution does not list any one language as India’s “national language”. We have 22 eighth schedule languages and 99 non- scheduled languages. Some languages are also included in the "classical language" category.

Clause...

1 of Article 343 (“Official language of the Union”) says “The official language of the Union shall be Hindi in Devanagari script”, and “The form of numerals to be used for the official purposes of the Union shall be the international form of Indian numerals.” English was initially an official language for 15 year period.

Section 3 of the Official Languages Act, 1963 provided for the “continuation of English Language for official purposes of the Union and for use in Parliament” even after the expiration of the 15-year period after the commencement of the Constitution.

So, English and Hindi are used on train boards as IR is under Central Government.

In various states, the official languages of the states are used in all services under the purview of the state government. Eg: Tamil in Tamil nadu, Malayalam in kerala, Marathi in Maharashtra, Punjabi in Punjab, ......

While agreeing with what you said I wish to say that there is nothing wrong in knowing another language. Apart from Tamil and English I can understand, speak and write Hindi to some level, can understand Malayalam and Telugu to some extent though I must admit not so familiarity with kannada. I know Spanish at very basic level.

Other Indian languages which I do not know but attracted my attention through media are Marathi, Bengali, Punjabi, etc
...

I also read Sanskrit when we were in North according to my mother.

Outside india German, Japanese are among the top demanded languages for job prospects.

I agree. Being an Indian army brat, I've lived and travelled across the length and breadth of the country. I can speak,read and write in English, Hindi, Sanskrit ,Punjabi ; and ; can understand basic kannada. At present we are based in Chennai, and I've just begun to learn to speak Tamil. Multilingualism is a bliss - it aids in better cultural understanding.

In my opinion railways should make future train sets with this coach composition 6 general class coaches including luggage loading capacity , 6 sleeper coaches , 8 ac class coaches ( which can include third ac or second ac or first ac or can be a mixture of these coaches ) and ( either 1 ac coach or 2 ac coaches can be removed to add pantry car coach and extra luggage coach ) so 6+6+8 total 20 and 2 electric locos ( 1 at front side of whole trainset and 1 at back side of the whole trainset ) so 20 +2 total 22 coaches , so that instead of giving lhb rakes to some trains which runs on a longer path railways should directly convert those mail or express or superfast express trains into these trains sets and cost of making lhb coaches will also be reduced or...

saved due to directly conversion of mail or express train into train sets and rake reversal time of many trains will be reduced wnd cost of doing rake reversal of a train will also be reduced ( due to 2 engine 1 at back side of the trainset and 1 and front side of the train set ) and speed of all trains can be increased (due to 2 engine 1 at back side of the trainset and 1 and front side of the train set ) . Please give your opinion on this but please don't give any argument related to politics so that my post don't get archived.

Or either railways can apply this coach composition in in some upcoming amrit bharat express trains so that we can see that whether this coach composition for train sets will become a successful idea or will become a flop idea.
