Explanation:

The point of Ghandi's description of the conditions in the third-class compartment on a train is to get the audience to sympathize with the readers. He over exaggerates slightly to make his point that third-class passengers suffer deplorable conditions. He does not use sarcasm or informal language to make his point. The railway is not really trying to provide any services other than transportation to the third-class passengers and Gandhi's choice to ride in third class is not to engage readers, but rather to make them aware of the conditions.
