So a new day starts with another derailment. Another day of lost lives for no apparent reason. Seems like the government doesn't care a bit about people's lives. Incompetence at its peak. A new accident every second day, it is crucial to mention that most of the zones are delaying trains in the name of maintenance. Gods know what maintenance they're doing.

Be it a train moving at 130kmph or 70kmph or even a stationary train, nothing is safe nowadays. People booking a train are not even sure if they'll safely reach

their destination. Where is the RM? He forgot to do his usual on-camera drama after the Gonda accident. I doubt he'll bother even saying anything about the incident, let alone take any responsibility.

Mission Raftar on papers with massive slowdowns and undue extensions. ZBTT, with a plethora of political halts, even Rajdhanis, aren't spared. Shabbily maintained coaches and unpalatable food on premium trains. Long hours of delays and a string of accidents. The 'Amrit Kaal' of Indian Railways.

Our government doesn't care about human lives, that's evident. But they care about the capital gains, evident by their love of freight trains and the recent tax terrorism. These accidents damage multiple rakes, what about all the money going down the drain. No one seems to answer. RM won't take responsibility, the government as a whole will deny it's responsibility to it's citizens.

This will keep happening because we, as the citizens, have no conscience left. On a forum related to railways, people keep defending their masters with whatever means they find. Instead of asking the right questions, they keep calling it as conspiracy. Some great people even start asking what happened in the last 67 years. Until people will speak the language of politicians and be their puppets, this will continue.

And everyone will be happy with the third worldly services and no security of life, because 'Bharat me sab chalta hai'. The golden period of Indian Railways.

The consequences of privatization can be two kinds - Japan, one of the best railways in the world. The other, US or Canada, where road, oil and freight lobbies influence the growth of railways so much that passenger trains and services are given lesser priorities. I would suggest a system where tracks and operations are in control of Indian railways while private and govt services can be run together on the same tracks. Would reduce the burden of govt to maintain only tracks, track maintenance and operations while loco pilots, food , cleaning can come under private control. But the main point I want to make it, we have to tread very carefully to not let Indian railways become the second kind.

I agree . Privatisation has its pros and cons , which vary from one sector to another . With respect to IR,
Privatisation of non- critical aspects is fine (albeit with monitoring by the railways).
However, Critical/core/ fundamental aspects concerned with operations, safety, maintenance should remain with the Government.

Agree:Completely agree with this!
Kuchh chezon par mai dhyaan lana chahta hun, Causes of derailment.
1) Packing of tracks...Without proper packing trains ate running at 130kmph in some sections like pnbe-ddu...i am a electrical engineer by degree and technisian in railway signal department as profession. Mai koi baklol aadmi nahi hun..besak mai signal me hun par railway ke sabhi department ki achhi khassi jankari rakhta hun..
Train heavely shakes in up line between ara-bxr ..i was travelling from 13201 in newly build 3ac coach..Coach shakes heavily, i was unable to sleep even i like sleeping in trains...2,3
...
more...
times jerk near Twininganj is so bad that i was thrown off my side lower seat..i know very well the difference between jerk and floating of coaches.. floating do not cause derailment but jerk can...i bet sone serious accident is waiting in pnbe-ddu if packing not done.
2) Bad bogies of freight trains especially boxn..i always watch the bogies and axles of freights carefully when it passes from me..i have seen heavily shaking axles irrespective of calm bogies...there is horizontal motion between bogie and axles, which should not be there...vertical motion is ok but not horizontal... horizontal motion represent faulty or heavily worn roller bearings...approx 20 out of 60 coaches in every boxn freight are bad, that is only surving due to wheel flange and good tracks or who knows that god is protecting...i have even seen parallel race of freight with my 13202 for about 10km...looked every faulty axles, thats insane...it can derail someday somwhere.
3) Irresponsible Officers...as we know railway is facing super lack of staff..Staffs are there in every department but numbers are only sufficient to do maintenance only nothing else..you expect them to do special work 3 days a week and think that it has no any effect on maintenance then you have no brain...these days are so hot, that you cannot work for 3,4 hours continuously in sun..you think that they will cut grass in station or block section and after 4 hours they will do maintenance of tracks, then you are wrong...we are not machines....these days i have seen 50's of group D staffs are busy in cutting grass daily..due to huge moist environment, grass came back again in 7-10 days...then again they start cutting. Instead of this you should have provided herbicide and spray machine and depute only 3,4 staff...they will do work of 50 people easily...grass will not come back again for 30 days minimum.
4) work load and duty period....Simple human are not machines... machine can even fail after proper maintenance then human can also fail...sone human failure led to disaster like SPAD.

RM still talking about bullet trains in parliament. Pehle in trains ka safety toh theek karo fir bullet train. Looking at the conditions of bridges nowadays in bihar, gujrat, et God know what will happen to bullet trains. Even Ayodhya temple and new parliament house is leaking within 1 yr of construction. Atal sethu is uffff.
God knows if bullet train derails what will happen...... It is really scary now to travel in trains.

Just looking at the profile of educated RM and why he is still kept intact in his chair after repeated railway accidents is because to Sell IR to private, he is best in dealing with private players. See his bio highlight and why i say this.
Regular accidents, poor punctuality of trains, dirty toilets of trains, vacant post of employees, mission slowdown, etc all r steps t downgrade IR services and run into loss, and when public will get fedup of the railway services, IR will be handed over to private players citing good improve services as the reason. For Pprivate players less employee and more work will be good for them, so vacant posts r not filled for

years to reduce burden to private players after they buy.
According to me
1. Separate Railway budget should be brought back to regain importance of IR and bring transparency in money spent.
2. Present RM should be replaced immediately as he is proved to be failed.
3. Wagons used in freights should be maintained properly and safety feature should be increased in them.
4. All vacant post to be filled immediately
5. Additional new lines where land is available should be constructed warfoot basis.
6. Number of SL and GS coaches should be increased in all trains
7. Punctuality should be improved
8. Toilets of trains r very dirty specially in few zones it is worst, money spend by tendering is not monitored by rail and there is corruption involved. Railway should monitor tenders given to pvt players on cleaning of toilets of trains. Hiegene in toilets of trains should be maintained.
9. Many important trais were cancelled in ZBTT 2020 should be reintroduced back as it is causing difficult to passengers.
10. Track maintainance done by pvt contractors who many times uses unskilled labours, railways many times fails to recheck their works. Special teams of railway zones should be constructed in looking after track works done by private contractors.
11. Maintainance of signalling and coaches should be done more importance and additional employees should be added for these works.
