Accidents and disruptions are happening repeatedly in and around Itarsi. The concerned zonal incharge needs to tighten his and subordinates belt. It seems something is missing in the system or is being overlooked. Since IR is a national resource, persons responsible for control and supervision needs to review the style of working and take adequate measures so as to prevent loss of precious resources.

Maybe they did but India,Pakistan and Bangladesh have hugely benefited from it. Indian Railways(Most routes) are highly saturated but still people ask for direct trains from their towns.villages and cities. We Indians should learn to transfer than asking for direct trains. India doesn't have the resources to cater to billion plus population. Sooner we realize this the better.

Agreed on this point. We need to change way we think for sure. It needs education and Geeta should be taught. We Indian are the worst and best in things where as developed world have average performer and hence they are far ahead. They take the benefits of best Indian and mock on the worst ones.:-(

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
