Will the Railway ensure safe travel for the passenger while asking for ID proof.?

Today's Times carries a news on page 3 reading 'IDs must for Long Distance Train Travel " I have been travelling for over 60 years and the condition of travel has been reduced to the British Era, when the British locked the passengers holding III Class tickets.

Right from the starting point to the ending point, the passengers who pay through their nose for the Reservation never been allowed to travel without facing the harrowing discomfort of encroachment of their seats and berths by railway employees as well as other people holding unreserved tickets boarding or alighting at every station and many time relieve the passengers of their luggage and other valuables..Despite repeated complaints the Police and Railway Ticket Examiner/Conductors turn a blind eyes to the complaints of bonafide passengers since these encroacher-passengers are the source of the additional pocket money for the Police and Ticket Examiners/Conductors. What action the Railway is going to take against such encroachers and unauthorised Railway staff ? It is a shameful condition that we are being subjected to prove our identity to travel within our own country.

Update:

When bonafide passengers are demanded ID Proof, the Police and TC. allows Unauthorised Railway Employees and other Commuters to encroach the Reserved Seats and Berths and travel in the Reserved Compartments for their own benefit. Often this leads to theft,robbery and molestation . Does this mean Safe Travel,

    No one will ensure 100% safety during travel.

    But for all the problems you have listed, Railways alone can not be held responsible.

    1 Who bribe the TC 's for better berths ?

    2.Who will reach late for boarding ?

    3.Who jump queues ?

    4.Who pay the touts extra for tickets.?

    5.Who travel carrying the whole house in train.?

    6.Who carries jewellery and valuables in train?

    7.Who spoils the railway coaches and toilets ?

    Who ... who who.... ?

    It is always a demand and supply. So far the demand for proxy tickets are there touts are there. The demand for better berths always encourages TC's.

    Any system just reciprocates for the need of mass.

    Let us stop this witch hunt ...............

    I propose that the better shrink for contributions be finished away with, and that the optimal payouts in retirement nevertheless stay as they're, adjusted for inflation. Social protection isn't a "provide away" application yet one that all of us make contributions to love a mark downs plan, and could be secure against different makes use of by using the government. Do you compromise or disagree and why? while you're so frightened approximately it then why do no longer you; first placed it back into the interior maximum sector and make to have been no can take out money from it for their own interest, 2nd pay back each penny you have borrowed from the two Social protection and Medicare, 0.33 take the unlawful immigrants off of it and people who come over right here yet by no ability paid a penny to it, and finally have it the comparable for each man or woman; in different words government officers are to take part in it and in the event that they choose something greater they do it on their own without the tax payers investment it?yet, the economic stytem feeding the imbalances had by no ability been incredibly replaced. They, a team of scholars, stated that each physique expenditures of interest may be 3% or much less for each man or woman to grow to be wealthy if needed (that must be genuine additionally to taces). the main suitable economic challenge may be, they stated, whilst there have been no expenditures of interest. Why no longer attempt this answer? the wealthy might nevertheless be wealthy. My question is: whilst soial protection turns right into a challenge linked to federal debts, why no longer artwork with a balanced or earnings funds and spend no greater beneficial than is obtainable in, as any relatives has to attempt for? Why no longer ban all loobying presents as a fashion to get rules that serve the country? God bless united statesa..
