railway ne kai salo se kiraya nahi badhaya jabki employee ki salary kafi badhayi hai ab kahi se to paise nikalenge. Mere hisab se direct fare hike would be better rather than this flexi fare

Re# 4472978-9              
It is very sensitive politically. There could be riots over fare rise. Precisely for this reason, these special fare special trains are deployed. IMO, these should be accorded good priority for their runs since they are actually charging premium trains' equivalent or more fare.
To cut running expenses, railways should cut some posts altogether. Like peons, sweepers, coolies (who carry guards' trunks), etc. Such non-skilled jobs not just give quarters, but very high salaries (thanks to pay commissions), free medical, handsome pensions, free travel, etc. Who knows next couple of Pay Commissions would propel their salaries above 1 Lakh Rupees per month! Isn't that criminal waste of taxpayers' money?

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
