the officials are Least bothered for this train.
If Both zones really have a concern regarding the train why arent they changing its timings and schedule and arrange a suitable RSA. no no one is cared about it, the reason for low occupancy of SC TPTY padmavathi is just because of its worst OEM done after the sabari returning from TVC, RSA should be reasonable. Lets hope that atleast in this year 2024 It will get LHB.
