What a bakwas move. Railway is a public transport system. How can they make It private. What if someone has to travel that day only in emergency.

 

[Devesh]

Of course it will be a flop service.....

 

[DashMajor]

Good Initiative to lure business class peoples.

 

[IndianMascot]

I am sure it will be booked by politicians only and govt will not get a single penny.

This move would further increase the ticket rate as ticket agents would book the entire train and sell them in black

Its not possible for ticket agents if some one gonna book whole train.

Yeah. Looks like govt was fed up with these small touts. So, they now want bigger touts to enter into this game by booking entire train and then selling it to passengers in black

 

[Technoglitch]

if small agents come together and book the entire compartments and together they would sell them with a profit
