Sleeping bag for Northern India in June?

Hi all - heading to Delhi, Varanasi, Bodhgaya, Darjeeling, and possibly Rishikesh and Simla in June. Traveling on mostly 2AC trains and staying in midrange hotels. Should we pack light sleeping bags, or just a sheet (or neither)? Thanks much!!

On 2AC, your ticket includes sheets, a blanket, pillow and towel, so you won't need a sleeping bag for that -- you might want one of those sleep sheets for hotels, but I find a sarong does just as well at coving possibly grungy sheets.
