Can we privatise the Railways

[shelton]

On my opinion Privatising Railways is not necessary, if we privatise railways millions of railway employees would face the problem as it is being faced by the private Airline employees, who have no job security at all. If we look at the growth rate of railways in the past five years it has done exceedingly well. So what we need to do is give this department under eminent leaders and let it remain a public sector.

I think public-private partnership is the way to go. This strategy is will ensure accountability.

we can privatize the railways but it shud b done stage wise as said by earlier user
and ofcourse one Co. cannt handle such a large network of railway, hence it shud b
distributed among right no. of players, and their activities shud b monitored unlike in
the other sectors wich hv been Pvt'ised.

I agree privatisation also bring positive for people. But In railways i don't like to see privatisation. Its huge industry privatisation this make few companies earn huge and accumulation of money at few hands. I don't see any huge service to be provided by private players

 

[jai.shewaramani]

we should privatise railways in india...

 

[jai.shewaramani]

n in the contract, we should mention things like better stations

 

[jai.shewaramani]

better security for women and kids and senior citizens

 

[jai.shewaramani]

better ticketing systems...to make sure everybody buys a ticket faster n effectively

 

[jai.shewaramani]

another thing to mention in the contract is cleaniness

 

[jai.shewaramani]

they should increase the frequencies of trains to accomodate the increasing population

 

[jai.shewaramani]

also, they should have automatic doors...so people dont fall off

 

[jai.shewaramani]

they should be told to connect the bus systems with the train system...so tht people can use one ticket for both

 

[jai.shewaramani]

im trying to think if i left out any other information

 

[jai.shewaramani]

they need better electronic boards for journey information

 

[jai.shewaramani]

and they really need to do something bout the smell at stations

 

[jai.shewaramani]

also, they have to get rid of street vendors,...

 

[jai.shewaramani]

and beggars should be banned there...in and out of the station

i think railways shud be privatised if v want better service. but it shud be owned by such a company which shud be able to manage it.
