After looking at all the pictures of vlogs the inaugural run of today I have one thing to say how ignorant are people who are happily and unknowingly celebrating another step towards privatization of our beloved Indian Railways.
Railways is literally serving and spoon feeding private companies in all silver, gold and platinum platters.
Isn't our railways capable enough to operate this train as well. No premium trains in the past have got so much priority and services that these private trains are getting, I mean for these private trains they will
...

not allow arrival and departure of any train before and after 15 minutes.
Track given by railways, running staff given by railways, locomotive given by railways, coach given by railways, one of the best and fastest time table given by railways but profits goes to IRCTC.
Just answer one basic question did IRCTC even purchased this Tejas rake ?
Can anyone please highlight just one single incapability of our railways that stopped them from operating this train as well.
There was a time when it was said that railways is a public property not a private property but today one can easily say that railways is a private property.
Air India, MTNL, BPCL and the next on this list will be Indian Railways and the list will go on.

IR is running this train indirectly through IRCTC. It's just for brand value but not sure how successful it will be.

One single reason - People will not pay higher fare to railway run trains but for a pseudo private train, travelers will pay the actual cost fare.

I don't want regular trains to get affected due to private trains.

    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.
