Better hand over the railway to the private sector and they will upgrade it and also provide a better service and make profits. on the other hand they will also pay govt taxes. The railway dept is making a tremendous loss and people have to carry this burden. Give it to China and they will do a good job.

This is a clear indication of the dire state of the economy. If the economy is functioning normally it is not possible to stop rail services for three days.
