Sir, First of all I would like to thank you for improving our Railway system by providing prompt response to any discrepancies. Sir, please introduce small portable dustbins in every compartments in order to keep them clean. Introduce more powerful locomotives so that there is up gradation in the speed. And Sir allot major portion of the budget in up gradation of current railway system instead of introducing more and more trains. Thank You.

Display the station name in the train when it stops in any station. This will help the passengers who are travelling in the nights.

The other important suggestion is, after brief verification, the people who sweep compartments and beg for money can be given a chance to clean compartments on behalf of railways and can take care to keep compartments clean. this will help small beggars to earn with respect.

I would like to suggest that the small time vendors who sell in train the unhygienic items, can be adopted by railways and given proper training & after brief verification, and can be appointed to sell items prescribed from railways, this will make 2 things, one is the small time vendors will get handsome pay and sell good items (they can be appointd on commission basis).

Mr Prabhu , I thank u for the great work and upgrading IR in past 20 months apx. Further I would like to request you as , our aim is to ensure infrastructure to every single citizen. Therefore we have to eliminate the waiting from the reservation. I mean you r requested to make births available to everyone. Today apx 10% population travels in waiting and another 10% just cancel their programs due to unavailability. This is direct revenue loss on possible opportunity to IR.

# Railway budget Please limit the issuance of waitlisted tickets to 30% max to the total seats available in general quota. In case any major cancellation happens and at last moment if seats remain available, these can be auctioned with tatkal charges + premium charges

#IR Finance Please stop giving too much of discounts to senior citizens, handicapped persons and keep this to max 25%. Put a cap on maximum number of travels by VVIP and other VIPS.
