ticket collectors charge heavily to passengers for empty or available seats in reservation coaches. So, please create some mechanism so that people who have waiting or general tickets can book tickets easily without help of TCs. You can add some digital boards in coaches which will display available seats with fares for booking for general tickets & free for waiting

for all passenger trains, reduce the number of stops between two main stations. There are many such stops where very few people board or ply from. Example like between parbhani & gangakhed (40Km) only pokharni at a 20 Km distance is important station So you can reject all other minor stops which are useless. Atleast start some semi-fast type trains

IT IS VERY SAD THAT PEOPLE DIE BECAUSE OF TRESPASSING. THIS CAN BE REDUCE IF A HEAVY FINE IS IMPOSED ON THE PEOPLE WHO DO THIS.

we need to implement display system that displays seats available at all time on real time basis this will save valuable time spent standing in lines for long hours and still being deprived of tickets due all seats reserved. there shall be a special counters for special cases like medical case,etc in case lots of people flocking to get ticket; to meet their ticket demand immediate other counters shall start to operate. for this railways shall have operators emergency pool to meet the demand.

Sir, I have an idea that will help to keep the Indian railway station neat and clean. it is an electromechanical system and based on latest technology (Like sensors). it ‘s cheap and effective. The toilet of coaches can be controlled automatically when the train approached the plat form . It can bring a big change in Indian railway sanitation system.
