Agree except point 5
It was Bound to Happen

1. No increase in Fare for 3A, SL, 2S
2. Operating White elephants
3. Increasing Loss making Stoppages
4.

Highly Subsidized fares for MST travellers without any revision
5. Operating Shramik trains with 85% Fare being Borne by Railways with people taking notorious advantage of it.
6. Construction of No feasible railway lines rather than Prioritising Freight corridor

Do remember that Passenger segment only hurts the railway the most.... It was all because of Freight traffic that railway was alive till today

Re# 4675665-18              
Even if Freight Revenue starts to Recover, it is made to overcome the losses created by Passenger segment in order to maintain efficiency. Plus Employee Costs and Union demands are increasing day by day. Latest example in WCR Kota division where the Union have threatened for agitation against transfer of crew from Kota to Guna. They want Perks, Allowances, Hikes and on the other hand, does not want to work efficiently. The So-Called Babu Culture of Government employees is also a cause for the depletion of IR health.

Next 100 Years me bhi nahi hoga... IR is converting Passengers with Speed of 25-30 Kmph to Express. And the day isn't far when the Criteria for SF will be revised to 50 Kmph with Maximum of trains below 50 Kmph Average

Agreed But it will have its own Advantages too, because even via Solapur-Daund will take the approximately same time as via UBL-MRJ-KWV (till the entire SUR-DD Stretch is doubled)
1. Daily Link for Goa express can be canceled
2. Direct Connectivity from BJP, GDG to BGM, Miraj
3. If it takes the MRJ-PVR-KWV route instead of via Pune, additional connectivity between BJP to

PVR plus MRJ-PVR-KWV section will get connectivity to Delhi
Also, Pune-MRJ_UBL is under Doubling and Electrification, So I don't think it will matter much, as anyways currently public is going to UBL to Catch YPR SK from UBL.
It can start by having RSA with BJP YPR Special
