Police should raid and seize the property of all these protesters and take anything they get. House, land, fridge TV mobile etc and then auction them and from that money should compensate railways for the losses they have accumulated for no fault of theirs. once when govt does it, no other protester will dare to block tracks or burn bogies in future. And if a political party does rail roke, they should be banned for elections for 10 years.
Imprisoning will make them state guests and enjoy jail hospitality at the state's expense.
