Here's what people said about it:
An individual wrote, "Yes it’s a problem. And you cannot keep the bottle on the table as the trains are very jerky, the bottle falls off. This is a problem for all the new coaches. Simply untested unthought bad design by @RailwaySeva."
A second said, “The shelf-like table is an impediment to those sitting window side. The older design which was foldable made sense, not this rigid plastic thingy.”
"You are absolutely right. Recently I traveled by Rajdhani Express train and found bottle holders useless. Let's hope that these defective bottle holders will be replaced with suitable options," posted a third.
A fourth added, "Cancel the contract of the supplier of those bottle holders! These should be part of quality checks."
