read full article... 'In My Train, Non-Ticket Holders Tore Curtains To Use as Mats & Sat on Floor'

On March 15th, a passenger traveling on the Malda Town Anand Vihar Express (Train No. 13429) from Jamalpur, Bihar, to Anand Vihar, Delhi, experienced a harrowing journey due to overcrowding in the AC coach. Despite having a reserved 2-tier AC berth, the passenger encountered several issues, including a woman occupying her...

seat, a lack of space due to non-ticket holders, and constant quarrels between passengers. The situation worsened with the presence of men consuming alcohol, even though it's banned in Bihar. The lack of assistance from railway staff, including the TTE, coach attendant, and RPF, added to the distress. The passenger was unable to use the washroom for 10 hours and felt unsafe due to the chaotic environment. The overcrowding subsided only after the train reached Varanasi Junction, where most of the non-ticket holders deboarded. The passenger's experience highlights the recurring problem of overcrowding in Indian trains and raises concerns about passenger safety and the effectiveness of railway management.

15 March ko, main Jamalpur, Bihar se Anand Vihar, Delhi jaane ke liye Malda Town Anand Vihar Express (Train No. 13429) mein travel kar rahi thi. Mere pass 2-tier AC ka ticket tha. Train mein board hone ke baad, mujhe AC coach mein bahut zyada bheed dikhi, bina ticket wale logon...

se. Mere reserved seat pe ek aurat baithi thi, aur passage mein bahut zyada bheed thi, jisse toilet tak jaana bhi mushkil ho gaya. 10 ghante tak toilet nahi jaa payi, aur safe nahi feel kar rahi thi. TTE, coach attendant, aur RPF se koi help nahi mili. Yahi hal Bihar border tak rehta hai, aur ye bahut shameful hai ki ek expensive ticket leke bhi, aapko apna reserved seat nahi milta. This raises questions about the railway management.

Agar UR aur WL tickets ke sath reserved coaches mein board kar rahe ho toh offence toh kar rahe ho. Railways ko in logon ko turant coaches se utar dena chahiye. Aur kaun si suvidha bhai bhed bakron ki tarah ek coach mein travel karne ko agar suvidha kehte hai toh ye suvidha tumhe hi mubarak ho.
Aur Indians mein toh civic sense na ke barabar hi hai bhaad mein jaye dusre log mujhe toh mere pure family ke sath festival ke liye Gaon jana hi hai chahe train puri tarah se full kyun na ho.

This is correct that Area of China is around 3 times of Area of India but if we consider Top 23 population states in China out of total 31 states then Area become almost equal to India and total Population is also around 106 Cr.

So there is not much difference between India and China when it comes to population density.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
