About...
more... the speeding up of the Madras-Bombay Express and the Grand Trunk Express, I wish to say that with the return to normal conditions, it should be definitely possible to speed up these two express trains. I took up this matter in the Zonal Committee, of which I happen to be a member, but there, the technical people come and say that it is not possible to do so. Why it is not possible to speed these up, I cannot under stand. The Bombay-Madras Express was first introduced nearly 20 years ago. It left Madras at 8-30 a.m. and reached Bombay at about 10-30 a .m ., taking in all 26 hours. Now it takes two hours more. If it was possible to do the journey in 26 hours before the war, I cannot now understand why it is impossible now. There is a general feeling—whether it is right or wrong—but it is certainly a feeling of discontent prevailing in South India that only North India gets every

Yo, listen up! So, here's the deal. I wanna talk about how they can make the Madras-Bombay Express and the Grand Trunk Express go faster, ya know? I brought this up in a meeting, 'cause I'm part of this committee and all. But those tech guys there are like, "Nah, can't be done." I don't get it, man. The Bombay-Madras Express started like 20 years ago and used to take 26 hours. Now it takes two hours longer. Like, if they could do it before, why can't they do it now? Down in South India, people are kinda pissed 'cause it seems like North India gets all the good stuff. Check out the Parliament record from 1954, page 47, for more info. Peace out!

Madras-Bombay Express aur Grand Trunk Express ke tezi ko badhane ke baare mein mujhe kehna hai ki normal halat mein lautne par ye do express trains zaroor tez ki ja sakti hain. Mainne is matter ko Zonal Committee mein uthaya tha, jisme main ek sadasya hoon, lekin wahan, technical log aate hain aur kehte hain ki ye possible nahi hai. Ye mujhe samajh nahi aa raha hai ki inko tez karna kyun mushkil hai. Bombay-Madras Express lagbhag 20 saal pehle introduce ki gayi thi. Ye Madras se subah 8:30 baje nikalti thi aur Bombay tak lagbhag 10:30 baje aa jati thi, puri 26 ghante mein. Ab isme do ghante aur lagte hain. Agar yuddh se pehle 26 ghante mein safar karna possible tha, to ab mujhe samajh nahi aa raha ki ab isko kyun impossible samjha jata hai. South India mein ek aam soch hai—saahi ya galat, ye toh discut kia ja sakta hai—lekin ye jaroor hai ki North India ko sab kuch milta hai.
