#Land - Station Development - Hon'ble Prime Minister Sir, There is a Railway Station at Marthandam (Kanyakumari District), Southern Tamil Nadu, the second largest town of the District. But the Station is not named in its own own name. The Tamil Nadu State Express Service is operating bus services from Marthandam to various places. As The Railway station is named in different name, it creates confusion among the passengers. Hence, the Railway station at Marthandam has to be named as MARTHANDAM

#IRTourism A separate wing for international tourists be created. For improving profitability more luxury tourist trains be planned. Specially trained staff fluent in popular foreign languages also. Connectivity with premier tourist agencies. Major railway stations must have ATMs, food courts, foreign exchange bureaux, disaster management centres, medical facilities and wheel chairs, more waiting halls (with paid and free facilities). Regards, Rajkaran Singh Bhatti 9780005656

#IRFinance Allow small units of Railways to be invested by people like mutual fund investment. If 1 lac people invested just INR 10,000 each will raise 100 crores. This will ensure cash flow to railways. This may work similar to public listed companies.

#IRInfrastructure There should be one more station between Vasai and Nallasopara. Similarly one station between Nallasopara and Virar to curb the crowd pressure on platforms.

#IRInnovation 1) Solar panels on train roof-tops - Can generate electricity for fans, lights, etc. 2) Financing for solar panels via advertising on trains - LED lights use very less electricity, part of electricity generated by solar panels can be used to power LED-based interactive advertising on the sides of trains, which can help in generating revenues for purchase & maintenance of solar panels. Purpose - make whole process self-sustainable in monetary and energy terms.
