In last 2 to 3 years accidents have increased many times in IR, but thank GOD almost 90%of these r happening with Freight trains. And govt is ignoring these all through years and presenting before media their GOOD Report card. But reality is not that good. If this would have been with passenger trains then?
Increasing sectional speeds to 130 kmph, 160 kmph but RB not listening to zonal railway and its workers and compromising the safety just to get some STARS on their shoulders is something very risky happening. If someday something big happens then RB and RM will be 100% responsible for that. But i pray to god that doesn't happen and hope new RM will think...
more... about it. Strengthen existing infrastructure, build additional lines like doubling, tripling,
additional loop lines, etc first then increase sectional speed.
