As we know today the rail budget is declared for the year 2015-2016 and this budget is better from all the budgets which were earlier passed because this budget contains true and important facts on which we want to think and apply in our daily life to clean our surroundings but there should be some development related to ETAH railway to connect with other stations also..

I would like to congrats railway minister for a superb budget which is not meant for some political benefits. Introducing a help line for women security is a welcome move but extending the reservation period to 120 is not at all good because this could open the gates for DALALS. Railway should be more concern to provide seat to the travellers and also this is one aspect which has not been addressed since long but over all I have not seen a better budget.

Modiji we have 8500 station in railway network. Why should we dont use all roof of platforms for solar power development? I know its getting hard to maintenance after project completed. For that we can give authority to access municipal corporation for maitain n continues productions of electric power.. Also we can give compentation to municipal corporation by give them 20 power or making participate in whichever profit makes by the systems.?

In today's railway budget, by increasing the no. of days for advance booking to 120 days, no one will be benefited except Railways. It will generate more revenue because more people will book tickets in advance to be on safer side and cancel as no body can plan journey 120 days in advance. It should be as minimum as possible. This is not a good idea to extract more money from people's wallet. One good thing: increasing the general coaches as less no. of unreserved people travel in reserved coach

by getting the platform ticket card swiped which can be recharged in multiples of 10 and also online. Besides, the height of the wall within the periphery of railway stations should be raised and covered with wired mesh to prevent human scaling impossible. This will also, to some extent prevent overcrowding of stations.

3. From the entry point where good are loaded and unloaded 4. From the GRP Thana 5. From the railway colony which is generally situated near railway stations and where railway officials reside. 6. From the post office which is situated at the railway station. In a phased manner, Automatic Fare Collection (AFC) gates should be installed at all the entry points. Any person who is not travelling (including railway officials) and want to enter the platform should pass through those AFC gates

Deaths due to trespassing occur because presently accessibility to the railway platforms is very easy. Any person even without a ticket can very easily enter the railway platform from multiple entry points. To check this, the railways need to install gates at all the entry points from which access to platforms can be made. Presently, access to the stations can be made from the following entry points: 1. From the two sides of a railway station i.e. city side and other side. 2. From the yard.

Ticketing system :1. Tatkal ticket on all train need to be abolished in stead tatkal train to be run with a premium price (tatkal price) or bogies to be fixed for tatkal. 2. Cancellation of ticket a. money to be transferred to bank accounts directly or a declaration form to be submitted to take cash. a. lot bookings by broker can be tracked when goes for cancellations. b. tkts once sold cannot be returned, cancelled tkts moneywill be in pool account and can book ticket from that account.
