Dear Friend,
It gives me immense pleasure to extend my warm greetings on the occasion of Holi.It's time to bring a colour of positivity in our lives. Under the able leadership of our Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji, we are stead fasting the reformation of Indian Railways. Improving travel experience for our fellow citizens is at the core of our work. Enhancing safety, creating new passenger amenities, augmenting infrastructure, introduction of new train products like Humsafar, Antyodaya shows our commitment to achieve the budget announcements.I would like you to see a short video on Indian Railways, The Lifeline of the Nation:
We are taking bigger targets because there is a huge historical backlog. We are trying to reform Railways significantly. Our reforms in Freight sector are unprecedented despite the challenge of declining freight traffic. These reforms have started showing green shoots and will help in regaining the momentum. I feel delighted to convey that Station Redevelopment Program to build world class stations with state-of-art amenities has been started.We are trying to save a significant amount by energy conservation and switching on to other viable sources of energy.
Recent subversive activities on trains have anguished me beyond words. However, we are constantly viewing the situation. We have tightened security to provide a safer journey over Indian Railways. We are determined to address the issues.
We seek your support in taking Indian Railways to the next level and benchmark it with the best in the world. I once again extend my warm greetings to everyone.
Yours,
(Suresh Prabhu)
