TVC is probably one of the best stations in India.
Have you seen any other station in India that is better maintained?
Where else can you see such spotless granite flooring, a station where people don't spit on the floor!

We should give it to the people and the railways!

Yes , we have the best station.And now its being developed to the international quality.
But the trains, they are worst in cleanliness and service. We get old refurnished coaches from northern states. We deserve the best!
