3.6 vs 5 litre: Even idle..its consuming 3.6 Litres..hw mch Unit Electric idle loco consumes?? 0
Thats wht i told!!
Further, u need to account:
1. Energy lost while producing thermal Electricity..into heat/radiation along with Combustion energy lost..Isnt Coal also fossil?? What about Diesel run thermal plants??
2....
more...

India as a whole is Electricity deprived..We hav Electricity deficit against required & then IR utilize major chunk out of that deficit share!! To make over, DG set runs across India for home/office needs!! Isnt that adds to fossil wastage??
3. More IR Electrification means more wastage via Thermal & Local DG set!!
PS: IR utilizes approx 10% of Diesel share of India while its 27% of Peak Load Electric share!! M not advocating IR nt to utilize E-Loco whn traction exists...but sme or other issue prevail, whch enforce D-Loco usage..whn u self admit..IR getting aggressive
for Electrification..to capture Fossil cost!!
