It is surprising that just the replacement of loco hauled rakes of the passenger trains by emu rake is being mentioned as successful implementation of "Mission Raftaar".
Success of "Mission Raftaar" should be primarily based on how much increment of average speed of trains (against the targeted increase of 25kmph over the current avg. speed) on the route has actually been achieved.
Million dollar question is - "has there been any actual appreciable increment in avg. speed of the trains in the GZB-ALD-MGS section, after the "EMUfication" of passenger trains??

Success of such missions/projects very much depend on the proper selection of parameters considered during monitoring and implementation. Just taking any action is of no good use, if the end results are not achieved.
