* Goa has only single lines which are heavily saturated. It need doubling on priority so that more and more trains can run faster with punctuality and paxs are benefited with short journey times, minimal waiting time at stations, and lesser rush at the stations.
* Making Thivim, a smart station and providing all the prevalent passenger amenities is a good step. But doubling of tracks is very much required for Goa and should be taken up on priority.
* A section of people in Goa opposing the doubling of railway tracks

I would like to warn those in Goa being up in arms against track doubling as well as any rail development. Please realise there is no alternative to it, the best (which will turn out to be the worst tomorrow) you can do is postpone it and not do away with it. This postponing will be accompanied by indescribable harm in the long run by way of stunted railway growth, resulting in overall lack of development. When realisation dawns, it will be too late and you may be left far behind. No use then crying over spilt milk .Just as Kerala is now. You have a live example.

    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...
