Poring/Spending more than what is needed, running #RlyBd by junior & incompetent officers for yrs, protecting the #corrupt-the spine of #IndianRailways was already broken by #KMG nurtured by #RailMinister. Entire focus is on big #tenders while #vigilance racketeers go unchecked. twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Protection of #Railway_officers who do business with #IndianRailway as #vendors on #IREPS shows brazenness of very top in #RailBhawan.
Lakhs of crores spent, lakhs of crores wasted by competence poverty of #Tendernan. And so many innocent passengers died today.
#MR should resign!

Wow!!! #VandeBharat trains are smaller, 8-coach versions instead of the standard 16-coach ones, to meet target
As opposed to its billed top speed of 160 kmph, the ones that have been rolled out have an average speed of as low as 64 kmph
Why exactly are crores of Rupees +

++ being spent on its promo & inaugurations when there's nothing unique about it?
++ a friend tells me this would double the number of times M0diji inaugurates trains - another grand event for every train when remaining 8 coaches are added 🥺
I am traveling in Vande Bharat train from Yzag to Hyd and the lady next to me has been on phone talking about her household politics. Apparently there are differences over jeedipappu koora (cashew curry) and mamidipallu (mangoes).
Apparently her SiL was served the cashew curry and this lady was ignored which clearly upset her. Currently, the heated discussion is about the food that was served in their wedding 20 years ago and how the magapellivaru (ladkewaale) were upset about it.
The lady feels she has always been ignored when it comes to food. Oh wait, it just became interesting! Discussion now is about Tupperware. Apparently her SiL was given pickles in Tupperware boxes while this lady was given in use & throw. This hurts! Who doesn't love Tupperware.!

PM MODI plans to take development plans to Kerala, this has threatened the commies.
To get a few brownie points CM Pinnarayi wrote a letter to PM MODI asking for a #VandeBharat to Kerala.
CM knew its a lil difficult to execute, so letter was a challenge under the garb of a request.
Commies wr shocked when Vande Bharat for Kerala ws approved by Center.😄

The original plan of Pinnarayi Vijayan was to bring a semi-high speed train— silverline project. That project will now go down the drain as Vande Bharat will get priority. Going by commie reputation— Silverline wld hv profited the local politicians and not the commuters.
All those cynics and so-called intellectuals mocking the speed of #VandeBharat and commenting on how the trains in the West and China have moved far ahead in speeds should know why we lagged behind. They should know the history of high-speed railways in India. A small thread!
As I have said earlier, when we ran the Howrah-New Delhi Rajdhani Express above 100 kmph in 1969, we were then the second country in Asia to run trains in excess of 100 kmph and China hadn't achieved this feat. But what happened after that? That's a tale of missed opportunities.
A lot of planning went into running the Rajdhani Express at a speed in excess of 100 kmph. An inter-departmental team of officers was formed to study the track and conduct oscillation trials on the rolling stock. I had the privilege of talking to one of the officers of that team.

#BRILLIANT Example of #Modigovt CAPEX !
Rs20000 per Plate of Food for #G20 comes as No Surprise
#Modinomics CAPEX is GOLD PLATED thereby costing us at-least 50-100% More than what a Frugal Govt should spend or what has been spent by the same institutions in the past.

Every unit of Vande Bharat Express is estimated to be 40 per cent cheaper than European ones. Moreover, the publication also said that the new Indian Railways braking saves 30 per cent of electrical energy.
The Saudi Gazette stated that Indian Railways’ Vande Bharat Express has given a new impetus to the Modi government’s ‘Make in India’ initiative.

A covid age travel story. I’ll be sharing my experience of traveling in a repatriation flight from Dublin Bangalore. Flight date 26 May ‘20. Can’t wait to be home with mom and play board games n cards ❤️ #familytime #COVID #indiainireland #VandeBharat #home #Flythenewnormal
Landed in Delhi. Waited for ~3 hours in the flight afterwhich we were told there is another aircraft been arranged due to a tech fault. Waiting since ~6 hours now. It’s very tough to wear the shield and the mask all thru out. Very suffocating. No ventilation / AC in the airport
After ~9 hours of wait, we were asked to board another AI ✈️ at the delhi airport. Walking from one gate to another with shields and masks amidst high security felt abnormal. There was tension in the air.
