Budget Season -2010

The Railway Budget 2010 is coming soon, every one hoping for good, but again we know it nothing make any difference. India's chandrayaan, was launched successfully on October 22, 2008 and India planing for chandrayaan-2. It may be shows our step with recent technology but what the use of these, every year winter come with big challenge for Indian Railway and every time they loose.I don't know why they not using technology for fight against these instead of making chandrayaan mission. Why not possible to trace every single train with the use of GPS, is this really hard to find any fault in track with the help of sonar system,Indian Railways has one of the largest and busiest rail networks in the world, transporting over 18 million passengers and more than 2 million tonnes of freight daily. It is one of the world's largest commercial or utility employers, with more than 1.4 million employees. The total length of track used by Indian Railways is about 111,599 km while the total route length of the network is 63,465 km. Then what is big, is this a big junk or big with good service. When it come with worlds big railway service in real sense.Most of the railway stations and cars are in gross disrepair, dirty, outdated and overcrowded. It is common to see passengers on trains hanging out windows and door creating safety problems. The interior of the trains are poorly maintained - "very dirty, broken seats, filthy toilets, loose wires tangled in the passageways, chipped paint, and the usual stinks.The railway has not yet been successful in addressing the overcrowding, cleanliness and other maintenance issues. Although accidents such as derailment and collisions are common in recent times,many are run over by trains, especially in crowded areas. Indian Railways have accepted the fact that given the size of operations, eliminating accidents is an unrealistic goal, and at best they can only minimize the accident rate. Human error is the primary cause, leading to 83% of all train accidents in India. When it come accident-free and casualty-free? development of appropriate technology for higher level of safety in train operation needed, we hope in this budget something will be come good. ALL IS WELL
