Sir I am travelling to raipur on Darbhanga Hyderabad express train no.17006 Sir this train run a long distance but this train running without facility like Charging point mobile more  
There is no attention paid towards the Meter Gauge passengers where the Express trains are still running on an average speed of less than 40 K.M. /h and that of passenger trains less than 25 k.m./h.The irony is we have to pay same tariff as applicable to broad gauge trains.We have to sit on wooden planks. Is it the justice with us.I am taking with Lucknow-Kathgodam section of meter gauge.The railway has disconnected us from all the major stations reasons best known to them.Earlier the Priorty was given in gauge conversion to Kasgang -Mathura section just to connect Kanpur with Mathua, resulting the passengers of Lakhimpur-Gola etc. are cut off from Hathrus ,Mathura etc. Subsequently railway has converted Charbag station for B. G. only and all M.G.trains were running/terminating from Aishbag.Now if one has to take B.G. train he has to go to Charbag via road. similarly they have connected Kathgodam with Moradabad and subsequently with Bareilly through B.G. Again we have been disconnected from Bareilly also. Now the railway is planning to connect Bareilly with Pilibhit leaving rest section . In the present budget instead of completing Pilibhit Aishbag section the priority was given to Mailani Bahraich section.We know one day railway is bound to convert the gauge but if there is a discrimination in priorities it is certainly wrong.This shows that railway has no ethics . Presently we are paying 100 times more as compared to last 50 years with less facilities and same speed.Hat's Off To indian Railways. more  
I am thankful to Mr. Suresh Prabhu and Local circle manager to consider my 11 points written earlier to make the Railway better. more  
Mr. Suresh Prabhu did good job. We at Konkan are happy that Hon Minister is taking care of hitherto neglected sector. more  
I am in favour of presented Budget [ 2016-2017]. I have some issue for consideration; (i) There is need of introduction of New Trains in the next few Years.Increase of trains can not be matched with population growth. (ii) Let railway focuses on safety and cleanness of both train coaches and Stations. (iii) Blanket[ [ for AC Coach} needs to replaced by double/ treble stitch/ fold bed sheet so that it can be easily washed after its use. (iv) More shuttle train [ DMU/ EMU] between local important station such as between Rajgir and Patna during office hours [ 8 Am - 11 Am & 3 Pm to 7 Pm] so that WT travel in train Shram-jeevi Express may be avoided. In fact important train should be designed to leave / arrive beyond office hours.(v) In order to avoid WT, Unemployed students [of schools, colleges, coaching classes, training courses should be provided with concession facility. Thanks ......Dr Biswas more
