  • Complaints on X highlight a stark difference in food quality between the inaugural journey and regular commercial runs.
  • Specific issues include overcooked rice, undercooked sabzis, hard rotis, and absence of dal and paneer, despite premium fares.
  • Passengers also reported staff confusion, some not receiving meals, and bedsheets running out, leading to chaos.
