I am traveling in varuna express today from Lucknow to Varanasi and have seen lot of cokroches moving here and there and also on my clothes. I lodged the complaint in the register placed with AC coach incharge who in turn smiles saying that nothing will happen as this has been complained several times eraliers also. I wd like to get attention of Railway minister towards the cleaniness of bogies also.. Thanks to Telecom growth happened in India due to which I am able to surf internet while traveling in rail and able to write this msg.

mr.mukesh, it is due to location of platforms in which train run..usually in india it is located away from city side..inside jungle..or far from city area....and india is not a neat country.. i mean open drainage..not closed one like Dubai..it generally create insect...that is the reason...hope u understand.. dont blame lallu...
Many railway staff have complained that their pension scheme and bonus salary has been finished by laloo. Also, he has reduced the number of staff and their salaries of other working staff. This is how the railways is earning profit. Now he is further decreasing the rates. That means more staff are going to lose their jobs. He is not concerned about the consumers who do not get tickets due to the touts at the railway station. Most of the time the net shows that it is waitlisted. Laloo is not the right person as Railway Minister. He should be removed from the post. Because of him many people have lost their livelyhood and are now found begging on roads because no one in the Govt. is ready to give them their respective jobs. So hell to Laloo. God have mercy on the railways and its staff.

Pande ji, He is actually creating the job. Every business need to run efficiently.Even if he cut jobs or cut amenities of some people, he made it efficient. He bring down the cost of frieght and there by increase the sales volume. And he is investing this profit in freight corridor which will cost Rs 40,000 crore. That will generate more jobs plus our product will be more competative in world market, beacuse of decrease in cost.

what is pennsion? is engiginner or docter working in private geting benifit like this even 35 yers a service with this nation in private secter as ex.engineer not get pention?
Yes, the railway minister hs presented a people friendly budget. Yet he has a long way to go before the railways become truly people friendly. Most of the stations have unmentionable toilets as do the trains.Housekeeping both in the stations and trains is pathetic to say the least. The food served is generally poor in both quantity and quality and very expensive for what is served ( Rs 42/- for veg meals).
Hope the railway minister gets to learn firsthand what the customers face - a journey by train is geneally a ordeal. Many important stations such as Jhansi, Kanpur, Bhusaval, Itarsi are badly maintained and stink. The platforms are not cleaned often and vendors cheat and charge more.
Inspite of all the neagtives the railway minister deserves kudos - the railways are no longer loss making and some of the stations are looking quite good with improved facilities.
Well he has once again proposed a people friendly budget. What I want to see is a more eco friendly toilet in all trains.Clean stations. Indian Rail Tracks should not be an open toilet ! He may have reduced the fares on certain trains but then he change the name to super fast which arrives at the same old schedule and charge according to super fast train rates. A profit of 25000Cr. is fantastic. However, did he not reduce the budget for coach repairs/refurbishing and new coaches to 12% from 30% to achieve this great profit?

Also the new 90 day advance booking is not good as many people cannot foresee their trip so much in advance. Often students studying in other states are the victims as their exam etc may not be fixed so much in advance. So one is forced to book 90days in advance( Railway keeps our money for 90days and get interest !) and the if we cancel, we pay for cancellation ! Again profit for Railway. Then you have to depend on Tatkal which cost you the earth as you have to shell out for the entire journey. How can that be people friendly?
Love to see so many comments. Earlier people were more concern about financial health of our public sector units. Everybody predict doom for railway. This man, Lalu, has now made it profitable, plus he provided new facility like e ticket and improved the existing railway stations (though not upto people expectation, specially people sitting in US/ Europe). He implemented all scheme from his own railways coffer. He is also working on Frieght Corridor.
Still people won't appreciate his effort. They would bring every possile excuse to accuse him. I think because of their political affiliation.
Some would say its because of Officer on special duty, Sudir Kumar or Railway board, but these very people were their earlier too.
I agree we was not able to do anything concrete for Bihar during his 15 year. But here he has actually bring railway from Blues to Black. For all of you When last time you took interest in railway budjet??
