The sorry state of Carmelaram Station

I want to share a horrible experience I had yesterday at Carmelaram station. A family member was coming from Kerala on the 12678 Ernakulam-SBC Intercity express.

This is very similar to how Chennai or Mumbai operates by making use of the same tracks on which inter city trains run. A small analysis i have done by referring Google Maps by identifying tracks that are already there (Only some stations can be built).
