Can we privatise the Railways

prasadaney

i think the railways should be privatised in an organised n phased manner starting with a particular service or region's operations and then gradually moving on to see ts benefits n drawbacks

prasadaney

yes we can
but as u know the problem lies in 2 thing
1Politicians

2 Infrastructure

Big players like Ambanis & Tatas can help to make reqd infrastructure as part of Social responsibilities

hi,
good one
it should be definately done. Trains which are most commonly used by no of people every day and also it gives good amount money to government but still the government are least bother to fulfill the expectation of passengers.
today what all are provided is only the basics, we should learn a lesson form western people and should do some improvisations

thanks

hey i dont think so that privatisation in railway is feasible . in privatization law you can privatize only when it is loss making or profit less than 20% for 3 or 5 year . as we can see railway now is in profit privatisation is not possible

They should not be privatised

Infact it should be a government monoply in part

And there can be competition when the prices are neede to be brought down or modernisation

Privatizing Railways...As every coin has two sides...There are some good and some bad results possible on its privatizing but the possibility of Good results exist more....On privatizing Government can improve the quality of service...And attract more investment from outside.....Thus getting more money or finance...Than some negative factors like after this it may rsult in discrimination...It may result in monopoly...And thus compeling people to pay higher amount....of fares....

So a very big topic of discussion but it will be good if it is done but under certain measures of control from government side..

Railways are a monopoly and privatising a monopoly will just leave the company in a position to exploit consumers. It was bad enough before, a private monopoly will just make it worse.

it could be privatised but at the same time has to be monitored by public and the gov't.
In Hong Kong, they are all privatised.
