Railway Price Hike

The railway minister Mr. Pawan Kumar Bansal has announced hike in price of railway fare. Last March when Trinamool Congress Railway minister Dinesh trivedi hiked the price, at that time the head of TMC Mamata Benrjee denied his decision. The Indian Railways had been in tremendous loss for last few years. Also there was no development in sectors like management, infrastructure etc. Railways being the on only public sector wholly under the Government, the Government only has the whole responsibility to develop it.
Government has been working well enough by providing us various subsidies and thereby making railways one of the cheapest mode of transport in countries. And also India is country with great density of railway routes throughout the country.
After the hike in prices of LPG, petrol is people ready to accept this price hike. The private sector coming into railway will really help. Everyone wants to enjoy more leisure and many of us are ready to pay for it. So, in this case if the private sectors invest in Railway, the price will hike with the better service. But on the other hand if Railway is also dominated by private sector the subsidies in fare price and the cheap fare for travelling will really affect.
