Lack of adequate general waiting room, there is no wheelchair accessible footover bridge to switch platforms, if you are carring bulky luggage then you have to take coolie or have to reach before time or you have to give your adequate strength to climb stairs with heavy luggage 😀 upper class waiting rooms is not perfectly designed, and toilets are not clean and too small, I have shared some pic for your reference. Connecting train availability is very good 👍 if I could precisely rate rourkela railway station,i will give it 2.7*

Major Railway station between Panposh and Bondamunda on Nagpur-Howrah route on South Eastern Railway. Rourkela came up with the opening of the Nagpur-Asansol main line of Bengal Nagpur Railway in 1891. It became a station on the crosscountry Howrah-Nagpur-Mumbai line in 1900. Rourkela was connected to Barsuan iron ore mines in 1960. The railway station gained in importance with the setting up of India’s first public sector steel plant at Rourkela in the nineteen fifties. It was electrified in 1961-62. The 156 km long line connecting Bimlagarh on the Bondamunda-Barsuan branch line and Talcher on the Sambalpur-Talcher-Barang branch line, was sanctioned in 2004-05 and construction is in progress. When complete , this line would reduce the distance between Rourkela and Bhubaneswar, the state capital, from 460 km (via Sambalpur) to 300 km.

The response of the security and railway staff is worst I accept they might be frustrated by dealing different kinds of people but as they accepted to do the job they should be patient. Its not all passengers are irresponsible some might be but they should not behave the same way with everyone. Im sorry to notice such kind of behavior
