Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

PL FIND A FEW MINUTES


Good  :  But  not  Great  !

Economic Times ( 08 Sept ) carries a report titled :

“ Rail Minister Goyal Reviews Safety Issues “

Minister issued following directions to the officials :

·         Remove all 4,000 unmanned railway level crossings within a year

·         Stop manufacture of unsafe ICF coaches and instead go for safer LHB coaches

·         All track replacements should be given priority and the rails earmarked for constructing new lines should be diverted to stretches which are prone to accidents and where replacement is due

·         Expedite the procurement of new rails on a large scale

Install anti-fog LED lights in locomotives


Without doubt these measures will improve the railway’s safety record

But , far from enough !

To save 15,000 lives every year , I urge Shri Goyal to challenge our scientists to implement my following suggestion :





A Case of Misplaced Priority ?
