Laloo made history by bringing huge profits to sick railways with out burdening common man.If you judge people by their performance he is much better than any highly intelligent,educated high class people who do best for their community or relatives than general public.

you are wrong Manjunath. Whatever profits he gets from railway, it has totally burden on public only. i.e. he has increased cancellation charges. he has made 60-40 quota of normal and tatkal tickets. so 40% public pays double the fare. he has made agents legal. so one the very first day bookings open all the tickets will be booked by agents. so public has to go for tatkal. and can generate number of waiting tickets which results in cancellation. he has increased goods train fares. etc.. and its so long list...

Manjunath is it true? Please verify the fact. Tatkal system is really looting money from common man. See the difference between Reserved/unreserved fares. He is not increasing the fare but levying some other charges.

And most importantly he has such foolish admirers like you then why shud there be any doubt on how Lalu is fooling the public
1. Railways is not an Industry but Non-Profit making Organization, and if he said it had made profit, please tell me what has been done in these last 5 years by lalu for development of Railways
2.Lalu claims the price of Railway Tkts has not been increased in fact it has been decreased by 1 Re, do you know how the prices have been increased without any one even complaining abt it
3. Now Tatkal tickets are only issued from source to destination of the Train's route for ex if you want to travel from Delhi to Kanpur in a train going to Kolkata and you are not getting confirmed tkts and have to purchase tatkals tkt upto Kolkata and deboard where ever you feel like, Railway will charge u extra for the Tatkal tkt over and above the fare from delhi to kolkata
4. All passenger and slow train has been made super fast / express and a surcharge of Rs. 25/- has been added quietly, he has always been silent on this subject
5. He has introduced side middle berth on most of the trains leading to grave inconveninece to the passengers , this has been done in AC 3 tier coaches,
6.The no of berth in a coach has been increased to 82 from 63 making the area so cramped up and it is also very unsafe in the event if there is an accident
7.There has been no improvement on the schedule of the trains, even now trains run for more than 10-15 hrs behind
