someone had deleted my post on emergency quota rationalization. I understand many current railway officials and many retired ones are in this circle but my request to you is to let freedom of speech prevail. I requested local circles and they have re-enabled my post. Their is a reason why we are not giving feedback on indian railway website as we know it will go in a black box like the register at stations or if one is lucky in trains. Request to Railways to both take positive feedback and critical feedback in right spirit and to only Make Railways Better. more
Why is corruption prevailing in Railways, the staff have been paid good/substantial salary, with housing, education, but why this additional pocketing of money, are they doing a favor to the public. Let seats be decided on priority/first come first served, the country should develop honest citizens, please note that plenty of unauthorized persons are travelling in reserved compartments, I happen to travel in Gawahati express from Bangalore to Madras, with a reserved ticket, and I noticed the train was full of unreserved ticket in the reserved compartment, and no ticket examiner. more
HOW CORRUPTION HAPPENS IN RAILWAY AND HOW WE THE INDIAN PEOPLE SUPPORT IT:- Let us take the example of Vidarva express which runs from Gondia Junction to Mumbai daily. Now if someone to travel to Nagpur from Gondia on the day of departure, if not booked in advance....to take tatkal ticket paying extra money....but easiest way to purchase a regular express ticket by paying Rs.75/- and take a seat in any vacant Reserved sleeper class coach. Pay Rs.50/- to the TTE without bill or pay Rs.100/- to have a valid receipt if you are honest. This is happening vice versa too. In a result bonafide passengers are forced to compromise their legitimate comfort of travel by allowing those unauthorised travellers. more
