Somewhere in Kolkata....

Kolkata on Wednesday welcomed the marginal hike in railway passenger fares and lambasted the Trinamool Congress bosses for choosing to oppose it. It was ridiculous to keep fares unchanged since everything else has turned costlier, forcing the railways to compromise on safety measures and defer modernisation plans, felt Kolkatans. They also lashed out at successive railway ministers for ‘adopting populist stances’ which has not helped the railways.
