Indian railways is the life line of India. It is the largest organisation (in terms of employment generation) in India and it is also the biggest operator of railways in asia and second largest in world. It is the safest (surprised??) compared to any railway operator in terms of casualities in an accident and volume of people carried.
True some services or facilities are not upto the mark or may be below standard but railways is improving. With a restriction on ticket prices (no... I am not joking.) the pressure on railways is too much.
What with 1 lakh kilometers of multi gauge tracks and arround 17 lakh workforce you can expect some glitches or short comings.
What does 4.2 billion figure strike in your mind.
Rupees ....no you are wrong.
If I say People .....then you might say combined population of India, China, Russia, USA etc.
Well it is the number of people it carries per
year.
WOW ..... Now that is waht I call carrying people to their destionation.
Considering the above facts I will give them all the credit they need.
But the bottomline is ....
[Has to be at the bottom of this review ;) ]
THEY SHOULD TRY TO IMPROVE AND MUST IMPROVE.
