#IRRailwayLines If you study the railway map you can find solutions to many problems like many shortcut routes with speed limit upto 220 kmph can be built for only express trains just take a look at Howrah Mumbai route it has so many twists and turns it can be shortened using shortcut routes same can be done with other important routes.

Dear Railway Minister, I am Prasad, Engineer working in Bangalore. We travel very frequently from Bangalore to Andhrapradesh -Vijayawada(hometown). Many software engineers like me are struggling for not getting tickets every time (mainly on Friday and sundays). We dont have dedicated trains from Bangalore to Vijayawada. There are many private buses running at higher prices and less safety/comfort. Can you please alot a train from Bangalore to Vijayawada. thanks Prasad

#IRComputerization Incorporate some of the railway agents/touts into the railways so that the profits can go directly go to the railways. They earn max. profits through tatkal tickets. IRCTC website gets easily hacked when booking tatkal tickets. I think they used to know the IP addresses of the persons and then block them.

Still I did not get single lower berth. No body adjusted. We suffered a lot. Kindly reserve berths as per age, ie lower berths to aged& upper berths to young. Change RESsoftware

#IRROUB At Faizabad railway station, there is a sub-way. Such sub-ways need to be developed at many important stations. Also, if the light goes out in FD, then it takes at least 1 minute for the staff to ON the generator. Many criminal activities can happen in that time.

#IRCrimePrevention---CONVERT 1000 TOP RAILWAY STATIONS INTO AIRPORT STYLE 'RAILPORT'where only passesngers should enter railway stations/platforms. All able bodied passesnger should only be allowed entry into such railports, after identity verification. For senior citizens/disabled citizens, free porters/wheelchair should be given. Relatives/Friends should be asked to leave from main gate like in airport. Security of rail premises, which are centres of crime, will be ensured by this measure.

#IRLand:Sir, kindly acquire old Gandhi Hospital land adjacent to Secunderabad Railway Station for station expansion/city bus terminal/vehicle parking etc. Though Indian Railways/SCR tried to acquire that land earlier AP governments/Chief Ministers did not cooperate. Now present CM is cooperative. Now you,IR restart ur proposal to acquire that land. It is idle now. Expand Secunderabad Railway station with more platforms and railway lines.
