I really how people look into progress especially in the case of railways. I guess toom much has been said of Laloo tuning around the railways; it is a part of any developmental process to see changes that can be seen in the railways and it does not need to attributed to any person. The railways have done nothing remarkable to make a common man's journey comfortable, the delays remain the same( looking into the era we are living in) the food is rotten , the services pathetic , the toilets smelly and gentry taking care of it the same as it was. I have been travelling in Indian railways for 20 years and have not seen any palpable changes that needs people to go gaga over Laloo. The balance sheet of the railways may show profits but I do not when these profits will trickle down to the common man. Laloo has reaped the benefits from his predecessors work and his charisma has helped him fool the common man as well as people sittting in IIM who have really no idea what a common man needs in and whose knowledge remain confined to theories in books. Laloo has been instrumental in clearing the coffers of Bihar and helping people from the state look for greener pastures and then coming back and crying foul over the treatment meted out to Biharis in Mumbai. Biharis should think about the treatment meted out to them in their home state by this lump of corruption who presents himself as a messiah for minorities. His gimmicks are over projected by the media thus hiding his misdeeds.
