The things needed to 'fix' the railways are politically challenging. The IR is operating trains like joy rides - folks are traveling for no reason (cuz of the artificially low general class fares). Lalu and Mamata killed the practice of hiking general class fares (in accordance with inflation) and it has been like that ever since. This govt tried solving it in a roundabout way (by limiting general class coaches) and expectedly, it did not work. They will have to bite the bullet eventually, no amount of additional track capacity would suffice otherwise. You can keep changing the Minister up until then, nothing will change.
Modi could've taken the graduated method earlier governments including his govt took in eliminating petrol & diesel subsidies. He can still deploy the same method after due consultation .
