MY VISION FOR INDIAN RAILWAYS --------- INSPIRED BY A COMMON MAN ---CREDIT GIVEN TO MY BEST FRIEND FOR TELLING ME THE INCIDENT
OUR RAILWAY MINISTER IS MAMTA BANAERJEE ...AMUSED WHY I AM SAYING THIS WELL THERE ARE MANY WHO DO NOT KNOW THIS. SO THIS IS FOR THEM.
IT WAS JUST A FEW DAYS BACK MY FRIEND WAS TRAVELING BY TRAIN AND HE MET THIS UNUSUAL COMMON MAN (MR.THACKERAY FOR YOUR INFORMATION THIS MAN WAS FROM U.P.). AS DESCRIBED BY MY FRIEND "SIMPLE MAN, SIMPLE DRESSING BUT AMAZING THINKING AND GREAT KNOWLEDGE ESPECIALLY GENERAL KNOWLEDGE, THAT TOO ABOUT MAHARASHTRA. THIS MAN COULD EASILY TELL ALL THE DISTRICTS, TALUKAS, AND VILLAGES IN MAHARASHTRA, WHICH OUR LEADERS DON'T EVEN KNOW" IT SEEMS MY FRIEND WAS IMPRESSED BY THIS PERSON'S VISION AND THUS HE INITIATED THAT I WRITE SOMETHING INSPIRED BY THE SAME VISION
IMAGINE A PERSON TRAVELING BY TRAIN, THIS PERSON DURING HIS/HER JOURNEY FALLS ILL, WHERE DO YOU THINK THIS PERSON SHOULD APPROACH FOR HELP. WE TEND TO TRAVEL BY TRAIN A LOT BUT WE NEVER THINK OF THIS RIGHT? WELL, PEOPLE THERE ARE NO MEDICAL FACILITIES ON OUR RAILWAY STATIONS OR FOR THE MATTER OF FACT IN OUR TRAINS TOO. THE COMMON MAN HAS TO FACE A LOT OF PROBLEMS ON THE STATIONS.THERE ARE MANY MISSING FACILITIES WHICH IF PROVIDED INDIAN RAILWAYS WOULD BECOME OF INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS
I JUST TRIED SOMETHING HERE ,
WE CAN GET MAC.DONALDS, PIZZA HUT, AND SUCH CHAINS TO OPEN UP JOINTS ON THE STATIONS THUS BRINGING AN EXTRA INCOME TO THE RAILWAYS. THE GOVERNMENT DOES NOT HAVE TO INVEST ANYTHING IN THIS. IT JUST HAS TO LET OUT SPACES WHICH WE HAVE IN AMPLE ON THE STATIONS, THIS WILL PROVIDE QUALITY FAST FOOD TO THE TRAVELERS AND ALSO MAINTAIN HYGIENE. THE VADA PAV WAALAS AND ALL CAN BE HIRED TO WORK IN THESE JOINTS IN TURN NOT MAKING THEM UNEMPLOYED. BESIDES FURTHER MORE THESE PEOPLE CAN ALSO BE HIRED TO KEEP UP THE STATIONS CLEAN AND SECURE THE STATION WHICH WILL MAINTAIN CLEANLINESS AND ALSO ASSURE SECURITY AGAINST TERRORISM AND OTHER SUCH STUFF. THIS WILL HELP THE POLICE FORCE ALSO AS A LOT OF FORCE IS APPLIED TO THE STATIONS AND THUS NOT SECURING THE OUTER CITY LIMITS. BECAUSE OF THIS POLICE FORCE WILL NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THE SECURITY OF THE STATIONS. NOW WE CAN BRING IN MEDICAL FACILITIES LIKE A 24 HOUR IN HOUSE HOSPITAL FOR NORMAL EMERGENCIES AND ALSO PROVIDE AMBULANCES AND ALL (I KNOW THERE ARE AMBULANCES IN SOME AREAS BUT I AM TALKING IN THE WHOLE OF INDIA) FOR BIGGER EMERGENCIES.NOW COMING TO THE POINT OF EARNING MORE INCOME IN RAILWAYS THIS CAN BE DONE BY ADVERTISEMENTS
AGAIN HERE THE GOVERNMENT DOES NOT HAVE TO INVEST ANYTHING, IT HAS TO JUST MAKE SOME ADJUSTMENTS DO SOME PLANNING AND GIVE OUT SPACES FOR ADVERTISEMENTS. ABOUT THE WAITING ROOMS OF COURSE THE GOVERNMENT IS WORKING TOWARDS IMPROVING THEM, BUT THEN I WOULD SUGGEST THE GOVERNMENT TO ALSO PROVIDE A PROPER BATHROOM. THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE IN INDIA WHO TRAVEL A LOT,IT SOMETIMES SO HAPPENS THAT THEY NEED TO TAKE A BATH AND THUS A STATION WILL BE A CONVINIENT PLACE TO DO SO IN THE WAITING ROOM WHERE THEY CAN HAVE PROPER SHOWER AND ALSO GET PROPERLY FRESHEN UP. THE GOVERNMENT CAN CHARGE FEES FOR THE SAME AND EARN MORE INCOME. NOW THIS INCOME WHICH IS ACCRUED CAN BE SPENT ON KEEPING THE TRAINS CLEAN AND NEAT. WHICH IN TURN WILL REDUCE THE SPREADING OF DISEASES , ALSO WITH THIS INCOME THE GOVERNMENT CAN BUY NEW SECURITY EQUIPMENTS FOR THE SAFETY OF ALL. WE HAVE ANNOUNCEMENTS MADE ON THE STATIONS WHY DON'T WE USE THAT AS AN ADVERTISEMENT MEASURE ADVERTISE PRODUCTS IN THE ANNOUNCEMENTS AGAIN AN INCOME. BESIDES THAT WE CAN PROVIDE CHARGING POINTS ON STATIONS FOR MOBILES AND LAPTOPS , THE GOVERNMENT CAN CHARGE A NOMINAL CHARGE FOR THE SAME AND THUS ANOTHER WAY OF INCOME.... ALSO PROVIDE INTERNET FACILITY THINGS LIKE CYBER CAFE, ZONAL INFORMATION COUNTERS, INFORMATION COUNTER ABOUT THE PLACE WHERE IN THE TRAVELERS GET KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THE CITY SO THAT THEY ARE NOT CHEATED BY THE TAXI OR RICKSHAW DRIVERS. BESIDES PROPER FACILITIES OF COOLIES SO THAT THERE IS NO DISPUTE. HERE THEY CAN JUST DISCHARGE A FIXED RATE SYSTEM ACCORDING TO THE WEIGHT OF THE LUGGAGE. I REMEMBER IN ONE OF MY TRIPS I DID SEE THIS SYSTEM AND IT WAS VERY EFFICIENT. BESIDES PLANT TREES AND SMALL PLANTS IN SOME PLACES AVAILABLE AS 'FREE SPACE' NEAR OR AROUND OR IN THE RAILWAY STATIONS. KEEP THEM AMAZINGLY CLEAN WITH VACCUM CLEANERS AND STUFF LIKE THAT . MAKE THE CLEANERS WORK IN SHIFTS . IN SMALL CITIES WHERE THEY CANNOT AFFORD TO GET THINGS LIKE MAC DONALDS AND SUCH CHAINS THEY CAN HIRE LOCAL VENDORS TO PROVIDE QUALITY FOOD. WHICH WILL HELP THE GOVERNMENT. BESIDES I DON'T KNOW IF YOU PEOPLE HAVE NOTICED THIS BUT INDIAN RAILWAYS ARE THE BEST NETWORKING SITES . THE GOVERNMENT CAN TAKE UP AN INITIATIVE OF BECOMING A 'BUSINESS MAGNET' PEOPLE WHO TRAVEL BY TRAIN AND WHO HAVE PROPER BUSINESS SHOULD REGISTER THEMSELVES IN THIS 'BUSINESS MAGNET' SYSTEM AND THUS THEY CAN GET IN TOUCH WITH PEOPLE AROUND THE COUNTRY FOR DOING BUSINESS , OF COURSE AGAIN A NOMINAL FEES CAN BE CHARGED TO MAINTAIN RECORDS AND REGISTRATION. SUCH PEOPLE CAN ALSO BE CONTACTED BY THE GOVERNMENT IN THE TIMES OF NEED. THUS ALSO TAKING A SOCIAL INITIATIVE TO WORK TOWARDS BETTERMENT COLLECTIVELY.
THIS IS JUST A SMALL VISION I HAVE MAY BE OUR MINISTERS WILL BE THINKING ON SUCH SIMPLE SOLUTIONS TO WORK OUT MIRACLES IN THE FIELD OF RAILWAYS.......
