Suggest solutions for reducing trespassing of Railway tracks.

Railwyays priorities for short as well as long distance passengers are all wrong. Instead of creating more space in the trains, the talk and focus is on serving more tasty food, bottled ans super costly water, pantry cars, air conditioned stations and wi-fi. First crowd in the trains should be brought to acceptable level and if every person must travel in reserved trains only, the waiting should be reduced to less than 24 hours. Currently 90 % reservation in all long distantrains is reserved.

A positive change in Functioning of railways will reflect on to better governance very fast. People are getting bit restless as all other good governance and finance ministry initiatives and Make in India etc will take time to show results. Cleanliness, better quality food in trains and on railway stations, timeliness of trains etc should be done on fast tract basis. More capacity to be added with FDI / PP partnerships.
