Entire social media for the past few days is filled with videos of travellers on trains struggling for space across all classes.
The absolute dead silence on this matter from the Railways and the Rail Minister is only making it worse.
Ironically, years of government amplifying the videos of Vande Bharat (a good service nonetheless) has been completely smashed right at the time...
more... of elections by these scenes playing out.
I just travelled on 11302 (not even on a weekend) from Bangalore to Mumbai, and while I was fortunate enough to be on coach A2, the general and sleeper coaches and even 3AC until Kalaburgi looked like a scene from hell.
Sure, one major cause is the reduction of sleeper/general coaches but this government as per data compared to earlier governments has performed exceptonally on the front of electrification and track Doubling/Tripling - What is the use when new trains are not being added on this newly created track capacity?
How does one manage to mess it up this bad?
please wait...Translate to EnglishMan, all over social media these days, you see videos of people on trains just struggling for space, no matter which class they're in. The fact that the Railways and the Rail Minister aren't saying a word about this is just making things worse.
It's so ironic - for years, the government has been showing off the Vande Bharat videos (which is a good service, yeah), but now right before the elections, these new scenes are taking over the spotlight and ruining it all.
I recently rode on 11302 train from Bangalore to Mumbai (not even on a weekend), and let me tell you, it was crazy. Lucky me, I had a spot on coach A2, but the general and sleeper coaches, and even 3AC until Kalaburgi, looked like straight out of hell.
I get it, there are fewer sleeper and general coaches now, but this government has done pretty well on electrification and track Doubling/Tripling compared to previous ones. But what's the point if they're not adding more trains on these new tracks?
I mean, how do they manage to mess things up this bad?
please wait...Translate to HindiKuch dino tak social media pura trains mein safar karne wale logo ki video se bhara hua hai, chahe kisi bhi class mein ho.
Railways aur Rail Minister ki is mudde par bilkul bhi khamoshi bardasht nahi ho rahi hai, jo halat aur bhi bigad rahi hai.
Ajeeb baat ye hai ke Vande Bharat ke videos ko sarkar ne itna promote kiya tha (jo accha tha), lekin ab elections ke time par ye scene sab kuch bigad gaya hai.
Main abhi Bangalore se Mumbai ke liye 11302 mein safar kiya, aur mujhe khush kismat lag rahi thi ke main coach A2 mein thi, lekin general aur sleeper coaches aur 3AC tak Kalaburgi tak bilkul jahannam ki tarah dikh rahi thi.
Haan, sleeper/general coaches ki kami ek badi wajah hai, lekin sarkar ne bijli ke conection aur track Doubling/Tripling mein pehle walo se behtar perform kiya hai - lekin jab naye trains iss naye track par nahi chala rahe hain, to iska kya fayda hai?
Aise bura kaise kar sakte hain?
