The Indian Railways, the world's fourth-largest rail network, is facing a challenge due to overcrowding in trains, particularly in sleeper coaches. The problem has worsened as the number of sleeper coaches has been reduced in many trains, leading to overcrowded conditions. This situation is causing difficulties for ticket checkers (TCs) and...

ticket examiners (TTEs) who are unable to board the coaches due to the sheer number of passengers. The issue is particularly acute on routes to Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, and Howrah. In several trains, including the Sarnath Express and Amarakantika Express, the number of sleeper coaches has been significantly reduced, resulting in a shortage of seats and increased waiting lists. This overcrowding poses safety risks and difficulties for passengers, with many forced to travel standing and experiencing discomfort and health issues. The railway authorities are aware of the problem and have received complaints from TTEs regarding the situation. Although steps have been taken to reduce the number of waiting tickets and recruit additional TTEs, the issue remains unresolved.

Indian Railway, dunia ka chautha sabse bada rail network, train mein over-crowding ka samna kar raha hai, khass kar sleeper coaches mein. Ye problem aur bhi badh gaya hai kyunki kai trainon mein sleeper coaches ki sankhya kam kar di gayi hai, jisse trainon mein bahut zyada bheed ho gayi hai....

Iski wajah se ticket checkers (TC) aur ticket examiners (TTE) coaches mein chadh nahi pa rahe hain kyunki bahut zyada passengers hain. Ye problem khass kar Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, aur Howrah jaane wali trainon mein zyada hai. Kai trainon mein, jaise Sarnath Express aur Amarakantika Express, sleeper coaches ki sankhya bahut kam kar di gayi hai, jisse seats ki kami aur waiting list badh gayi hai. Is over-crowding ki wajah se passengers ki safety ko khatra ho raha hai aur unhe pareshani ho rahi hai, kai passengers ko khade ho kar safar karna pad raha hai aur unhe bechari aur health problems aa rahi hain. Railway authorities ko ye problem pata hai aur unhe TTEs se complain mili hain. Halanki waiting tickets ki sankhya kam karne aur naye TTEs recruit karne ke kadam uthaye gaye hain, par yeh problem abhi tak solve nahi hua hai.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
