Something I've noticed and never understood is, there are some stations with distinctive/quirky/unique - duration of stoppages like Moradabad or Basti.

Almost every train which halts at Moradabad, halts there for 8 minutes, similarly at Basti, it's for 3 minutes.

Re# 6097795-29              
If Lalu Prasad Yadav did not increase train fares during his tenure as Railway Minister. The current government should consider increasing the prices of train classes to mitigate significant losses while maintaining their availability, as removing them is not a viable solution, as evidenced by the disruptions caused by the rake standardization policy. This policy has negatively impacted all passenger classes including AC and non-AC.

If Lalu was unable to raise fares, why can't the current government do so? It is unfair to single out Lalu for not increasing train fares

during his tenure as Railway Minister because we've had many Railway Ministers after him in 10+ years of Modi Government.

I'm wondering why can't the tradition started by Lalu of not increasing train fares be broken now, since the present government has broken many "traditions" of Railways including having more AC coaches than non AC coaches in Express trains.

Sooo basically you're saying that it becomes a political hot potato and opposition will use the fare hike done in NDA government against the government. Why can't the same be said for Lalu? Opposition would've used this against Lalu at that time. Right?

Having more AC coaches than non AC coaches in Express trains specifically is definitely a break with the tradition. That's what I said, yes UPA government might've increased the number of AC coaches but in no way AC coaches were more than non AC coaches.

Re# 6097795-42              
What I'm saying is since the present government did not had or have enough guts right now to increase the fare of train tickets at this time or in previous terms (when they had more than half of Lok Sabha seats single-handedly) + inflation is low than 2000s too because of the fear of retaliation they'll face from opposition.

Why do we expect Lalu to raise the fare of train tickets when he was an RM in a coalition government which lacked enough seats to make a government single-handedly. + inflation
...

was really high at that time. Maybe Lalu also feared retaliation from opposition or worse, a total collapse of the government.

I see double standards.
