Rajya Sabha MPs flag poor train amenities, call for better services

The Hindu  

Several MPs in the Rajya Sabha on Monday raised concerns over crowded trains and inadequate amenities, with some noting that even first-class compartments face maintenance issues. Participating in a debate on the working of the Ministry of Railways, NCP-SCP member Fauzia Khan highlighted the overcrowding issue, saying people are travelling in bogies "like cattle". BRS's Ravichandra Vaddiraju claimed that Telangana received only a "nominal" share of the Rs 32,000-crore railway projects approved for nine states. He cited achievements, including 753 km of new tracks laid since 2014, electrification of 1,096 km, five Vande Bharat trains, and 22 projects worth Rs 40,000 crore underway.
