Shri Lalu Prasad has been an Icon in the world today. But, one has to see how crooked he is. He is not increasing the fares. But, what he did is he stopped half of the reservation tickets available and put the half under Tatkal. When one need to buy a ticket on Tatkal, one need to full charge from starting station to the last station. so, how can one say that Mr Lalu Prasad Yadav is a great ruler, but, I would say he is the canniest ruler

Absolutely correct. In effect, railways are getting 60-70% more from each coach of TN expres travelling from Chennai to Delhi. And it is hapless passenger who is paying through his nose. Very soon there will be an additional berth in RAC side of sleeper coach. Then it will be hell inside the coach in summer. He is fooling all the people the way he fooled people of Bihar masqurading as 'champion of poor'. How many 'Garib people' are actually travelling in his 'Garib raths' ?

but it is good for atleast those who do journey up to last station!And when people are ready to pay in black to dalals the it is better they pay to Railways!and nobody asks you to buy Tatkal !and if you plan in advnce no need for Tatkal ticket!That it is another story that 20% seats are now under Tatkal category!but still it is innovative!
