Hey his getting the high numbers could certainly be true. But his way of getting them were questionable. He moved most of the seats from general booking to tatkal booking as far as passenger trains are concerned. that itself would increase your earnings like hell. he also increased freight charges. more so it was fortuned by rising petrol and diesel charges for truckers who obviously demanded higher rates to use their services, not leaving much choice to the industry but to use the goods trains. Garibh rath trains have the cheapest quality of wooden boards possible. Ultimately he is charging more from the public. Whats the whole point in having profits for the govt company if the very services for which it has been set up are charged like hell.
