It’s the beginning of New Era… An IRSSE officer is managing Infrastructure, IRSS officer powering the Traction & Rolling stock.
Let’s Hope Railway is on right TRACK.

it is a wonderful steps taken by the Government.Earlier Railways have almost 18 vertical heads.Every department was working as an individual entity. I have witness that DRM’s were helpless before Sr DOM or Sr DCM.There is scant regards for the DRM post.,though DRMS are head of division.It may be tip of the ice berg.There is no redressal system.IRTS will not listen to IRSE .IRAS will not listen to IRSS and so on.Very funny.Simply bring the privatization and you will find the Railway s fate like BSNL.
