Life in Mumbai........Faster transportation is the key to decongestion

This is the kind of life people live in Mumbai. The following photograph is taken at Virar Station. There is no room left in the train, but the people keep pouring. Human life is worst than animals as far as rail transportation is concerned. Demand outstrips supply and the solution is not visible at the moment.


Let's wish Indian Railways do not just mention profit of crores in parliament. Rather than blowing their own trumpet, they should spend those profits in adding more services. Speed is the key to decongestion. Faster transportation can lead to decongestion of Mumbai as people would be able to choose destinations in the range of 100 km from the main city area.
