Stop the irritating announcements on vande bharath

Have been travelling frequently on the vande bharath trains to Tamilnadu from Bangalore. The announcements are just outright irritating, reading the English translations (literally, matra by maatra) of the local language. Making announcements on keeping the compartments clean, stations from to, automatic doors etc are just not required. No one bother about them.
So, the experts who have suggested this brilliant idea, please stop this. The charm on travelling by VB is lost. more  

As much the Metro train - on station - automatic door - and stoppage. It is needed One can be angry But save some lives etc more  
There is stark difference between Metro & Vande Bharat Trains. In Metro a passenger's travel time is mostly less than one hour but in Vande Bharat the shortest travel time is more than one hour and from point to point it may be upto 8 hrs. So continuously hearing these messages for 8 hrs can be irritating and cause discomfort. So it is better to make announcements only when Vande Bhart halts at an intermediate station or at the destination. more  
Definitely about the station which is arriving will be good. More importantly, can announcements be made in the toilets as soon as somebody enters about how to use it and keep it clean? We dirty our public places and then blame the government for poor services. Till we are educated about these basic issues we need regular announcements at least in the toilets. more  
The southern railway always follows this rule, during holidays and festival seasons. why?. that too the trains pass through TAMIL NADU only they reduce the number of second class sleeper reservation coaches and general unreserved coaches. depriving two classes of people, the middle class and the poor alone people travel with respective tickets. if these coaches are reduced in Tamilnadu and used in other than Tamil Nadu trains. in other places out said Tamilnadu they never buy tickets to travel even in FIRST CLASS AC coaches and no control by Railway TTE more  
The over-explanation of routine information can really take away from the travel experience. Many passengers do feel that the announcements, especially when they are repetitive or overly detailed, don't add much value and, in fact, disrupt the smoothness of the journey. A simpler, more concise approach to announcements might improve the overall ambiance. Travel should feel seamless and comfortable, not like you're being constantly reminded of minor details you already know. more
