Why in this Budget railway haven't increased the fare ? Even when it is running in loss they should have increased fare amount. Before 8 years before they had increased the fare from passenger trains, after 8 years the living standard of people are changed and India had developed much better than before 8 years but railways still don't have funds for there projects and development. the whole railway is used for political purpose i think the every year budget should be stopped. and allow them to rule the department themselves like in Civil Aviation and Shipping they still don't have budget yet. It time to increase the fare and run the railways into profits.

then why the railway is running in loss, if they have hidden cost, even if u see the diesel prices have been increased nearly double in 8 yrs and i think cost of electricity have also increased so they have pressure on there profit margins and if u see the freight charges in india is four times higher then United States. but they are covering the loss of passenger division by increasing charges of freight.
