I have four-five problems which I have been thinking for a long period having some solutions however yet to figure out the best ones
- Silent Airports : Many of the airports are silent airport. I met an old couple about a year back at Delhi airport I guess and they were traveling for the first time. Such big airports create a lot of anxiety and that too when they don't announce. They were waiting at a wrong gate for long before fortunately they asked me and went to the right one. Similarly if someone goes to washroom and may be there is a change in the Gate number and considering we have to travel now a days a lot for getting to the right gate at many airports , how do we deal with it
- Platform Ticket : Many of us have a good habit of buying the platform tickets but not all sadly. That too gets compounded by the fact that the nudge to buy ticket not comes from within as a duty rather to avoid punishment most of the times. Large lines sometimes on the ticket counter creates an extra disincentive. Ticket vending machines like ones for Mumbai local can be installed however if again the core issue that many people don't take platform tickets remain an issue
- Tatkal Ticket and Counters
I had to travel once from Ranchi to Mumbai , went 2 hours before to the Hatia station , kept waiting for the clock and was still 3rd in the line . And when it came to ticketing , got the 2nd waiting list . The two persons who were booking Tatkal ahead of me were travelling to places where there were a lot of Tatkal tickets available. So they both got and would have got had they been behind me however I missed out. All the anxiety and hope turned into frustration . The travel cost of 50 rs and the 3.5 hours of travel + waiting became a sunk cost !
Why can't we have more counters of railways across the cities , atleast bigger cities to start with and zonal counters like travelling to eastern zone, western zone or atleast zonal wise counter ?
- Seamless Travel - A friend of mine used to commute via all three means of transportation - Auto/ bus and train local to reach to her office and her salary was not that great to afford ola/Uber pool everyday . But a lot of time was spent in getting passes and tickets separately, waiting for the auto at station.
And these times doesnot affect till everything is right however can we make these transitions seamless
Waiting in train - Waiting list as a concept is really painful and creates a lot of anxiety. Is there any way in which railways can say - if we have a final waiting list of more than the size of a coach , you can travel , all you need to do is you will be given an option at the time of ticket booking itself that are you willing to travel - and would be charged 10-20% extra of Tatkal price at the end. Key is people want to travel hence they booked the ticket at the first place. How far is it logistically and economically feasible
These ideas have led to concrete solutions in some cases and some I am still trying to figure out. If you can think of good enough solutions, you are most welcomed to comment / msg me on fb
Thanks

This has been made by one of my friends here Abhinash Mishra and is an Excellent discussion on how to eliminate, please refer to last year paper and the same Q number in this pdf, you will get good nuances of elimination ..some of them are really smart ways 😊
I really appreciate the time each one of you took to think about the problems..this is really a great effort...most of the solutions are really commendable..
I always believe people around you have better ideas many a times and it's important to understand their view point..I feel good that people really think about issues and think deeply.
The idea is daily problems that we see should be addressed in simple and yet decently comprehensive way ..not any humongous or policy paralysis problems...common man suffers from these small issues which we need to figure out how to solve ..thanks again
In case you are yet to comment and have some solutions feel free to comment or send me solutions
Thanks again :)

Panicking at last moment will not help..so keep calm and keep reading
Panicking at last moment will not help..so keep calm and keep reading
सभी भाइयों और बहनों से एक विनम्र निवेदन है
हिंदी भाषा को और उसके पढ़ने पढ़ाने वालों को कभी हीन भावना से ना देखें ।
अंग्रेजी भाषा एक खूबसूरत भाषा है पर हिंदी या अन्य स्थानीय भाषाओं में भी जो मधुरता है उसका सम्मान अनिवार्य है ।
कई बार नए पीढ़ी के अभिभावक आज कोई छोटा बच्चा हिंदी में आपको नाम बता दे तो बोलेंगे
' oh my dear son / daughter , tell uncle in English what all you have learnt in class '
Is मानसिकता के दुष्प्रभाव शायद हमे आने वाले २० सालों में दिखें जब बच्चे के मानस पटल पर अपनी भाषा को लेके एक हीन भावना आ जाएगी और मानसिक रूप में शायद भाषा की गुलामी को वो स्वीकार भी कर ले।
मैंने हमेशा कोशिश की है कि ऐसे लोगों को अगर समझाया जा सके तो विनम्रता पूर्वक समझाऊं । आपसे भी यही आग्रह है ।
और हां हिंदी , तमिल , तेलुगू, उर्दू , कन्नड़ इत्यादि भाषाओं के ज्ञाता से अगर मिलें तो उन्हें उस सम्मान से देखें जिसके वो भी हकदार हैं ।
मेरी भाषा मेरी आशा ।
