Simultaneously, unauthorized persons traveling without proper tickets in reserved coaches should be stopped forcefully, they are creating problems to proper passengers who pay more and have to share the coach with unauthorized without tickets passengers. Railway should take extra charge to them. It is a regular basis scenario that TTE is demanding tickets having proper reservation passengers and not looking at the unauthorized passengers who has not even a tickets. If railway TTE and sceurities become strict, Railway can income more without increasing Ticket fare. Many places it has been observed that the daily passengers are traveling in Sleeper coaches-causing problems to others although there are enough local or passenger trains. more  

First of all - unauthorized sales people should not be allowed to sale anything on the train, Indian police is so corrupt and they take their own commission from them to sale anything in the train, they don't care whether sale person is a professional thief,who can either give the pessenger a Poision and loot him. This is true story just happened with my father while traveling towards Ludhiana in Dadar Amritsar. Around 10:30 in the morning when train crossed Ambala, my father bought a tea cup on the train and right after he slept unconsciously. He couldn't even realize that someone is taking off his Gold ring from his hand and stole one of his luggage,where he had his Passport, Cash and other important document ..and now he is juggling with other Indian corrupt offices to get his document re issued which is like a nightmare in india. Anyways, my suggestion would be 1. To stop these kind of private and unauthorized sales people on the train to prevent loots and robberies. 2. Railway should consider not making anything in the train itself. They can give a contract to food supply companies and approved by health department and then collect it from the prospective railway stations to serve or sale. 3. If not, railways should appoint special group, which should have someone from health department will check on the food being made in the pantries. He should check whether the pantry is clean enough and or the dishes where the food is being cocked is cleaned and washed enough. The raw material source is safe enough to put pessengers not on the risk of catching disease or death. 4. Each person making food should have training or certification of health and food deartment, so that specially cooks know what is good and bad for cooking purposes. If something goes wrong they should be caught. 5. Alike cooks, sales personal should also be registered with railways police department and should have account who served in which train and what time. 6. Last but not least that security in the train should be strict, there should be one police guard in each compartment so that atleast if someone come across any of unexpected situation, someone is there to listen ...right now people just try to look for police guard or TTE in entire train where they hardly meet and listen. I know no one is gonna care what I wrote and it's just a formality of railways .. But I explained myself whatever I thought .... I started hating Indian railways when I gotnto know that in pantries they use water even from toilets and keep the raw material and ice cubes even in the toilet to serve people. They don't care about washing their hands after using restrooms or wiping out their sweat which is highly unhygienic. Hope someone works on this poor conditions of railways ... I pray to God to show us all a good path at each step. more
