Lalu Yadav, the management guru!
October 8, 2008
Yadav's reforms that transformed the story of the Indian Railways:
In the last three years, the railways minister has more than doubled the number of tatkal seats.
Rail ministry sources admitted that the additional tatkal seats have been taken out of the berths available under normal reservation and this has reduced the chances for passengers to buy cheaper tickets in advance.
In the last four years, the Railways have upgraded 210 mail and express trains to the super-fast category, taking the total number of such trains to 350.
