The latest Railway Budget gives us a clear picture of the poor state of the finances. It is not surprising given the fact that for the last several years, Railway has been used by the smaller political parties to their own advantage. After a gap of 17 years the Congress Party has got back the control of the Railways. Unfortunately, the next general election is expected in a yearââ¬â¢s time, so the present Minister do not have much time in hand to show any spectacular results. Let us hope that the modest developmental agenda meets its target.
