No effort to modernisation the railways which are standing still while rest of the country is progressing. When you travel by Rajdhani today or when you travelled 10 years ago, is there any difference? Yes, it was better then. Besides no emphasis on safety. Small accidents across phataks have become order of the day. A fare reduction of 3 - 7% does not take you any where. On the contrary huge cash reserves that the Railways have should be used to bring Indian Railways closer to the railways of the developed world.

I support it as a disappointment.... but still a reduction of 3-7% means a lot for poor people. Also i presume that with the reduction of ticket fares, pantry charges will go up. So it would be the same.Lalu Sir please look out for Pantry charges!!!
