South Central Railway Earns profit annually 2500Crore. You know how much budget is SCR Got in 2009 railway budgets (both Laloos and mamtas) it is 300Crore. This year because of all talk about Telangana, you know how much SCR got 1200 Crore out of which Half of it is borne by Andhra Pradesh......When 2500Crore is earned by Railways is it not fair to ask 50% to be spent at this place. Dont tell about load factors......Hyderabad-Delhi route is very busy route. I travel frequently on business on this route and I fly because of non availability of berths in all trains. Laloo promissed to run Bangalore Rajdhani via Kacheguda on other three days. We never got it!!! NZM durento bi weekly came after an year. If this is the case with Mamtas Favorate train, imagine about other trains who knows when they will come. And coming to load factor VSKP-SC...
more... Garibrath is allways full, which is one of the few garibraths trains running daily. It is not full because of cheap but full because of load factor. You can hardly get a ticket 3A/2A in regular train also in this sector.
