media is nothing but they are media monkeys
by abhijit singh on Feb 25, 2008 04:08 PM

i dont understand why every one in media giving credit to lalu prasad for turnover .its quite natural that when economy is growing at 9% for last 5 years every sector get benefit .and for not increasing fare just go and buy a ticket and see wht actual figure ur paying the ticket which was earlier costing four year ago 400 rs is now costing over 500 just by making 100 of trains superfast without any real increase in speed he had made us to pay 30 rs more in sleeper and 40rs in ac classes.and whole media is saying that lalu has not increased fare for last 4 years .one more example jusy take a meal from railway pantry car and u will end up paying 45rs which was earlier costing 25 rs .tell me who will pay these all increase rate .one more example three years ago railways doesnt charge any single rupee in cancellation of waitlist ticket but now they charge 20 rs .and more thing railway is not a listed company so it doesnt follow any international accounting practices so u may find after two three yaers that all these profits were nothing but just manipulation of accounts.yes railways is doing gud but tell me which secotr doing bad in last 5 years in india.even agriculture is showing healthy growth.
