My friend we are also paying more taxes any ways let GST comes and we can compare. I agree on part of regional bias of railways development. Now with NDA its gone to peaks as this govt focusing more on some regions only. But as said above this increase of fare will not help in anyways to railways. Its very very less when compare to their expenditure and false planning. On one hand railways loosing 100s crs on flexi fare on premium trains on other hand it want to milk money from poor middle class people. I am against to that.
