Some measures in the budget are good. But a lot still remains to be desired. Journey times of almost all the trains needs to be reduced, as there is vast scope of improvement. The law and order in the trains, is pathetic, as unruly crowd of daily passengers, regularly disturbs the peace and comfort of sleeper class passengers, and usurps their berths forcefully, in almost all the trains. Most of the stoppages, like the one at Hapur, needs to abolished at least for some trains. For example, the halting of Delhi-Faizabad Express (train # 14206 Down), at the Hapur railway station must be ceased at once. The huge rush of daily, rouge passengers, mainly youth, and criminals, who board the train at Ghaziabad railway station, for Hapur, prevent the Sleeper class passengers, mostly with small kids, to board the train, as the stoppage at Gzb., is just 2 minutes. The Hapur bound passengers, in huge nos., fill up all the sleeper class bogies, and create a virtual hell, till Hapur arrives. They can conveniently catch the Rewadi-Hapur-Bulandshahar shuttle, which arrives, a few minutes later at Gzb., in the evening. The legitimate rights of sleeper class passengers are being blatantly violated by these daily passengers. The termination of Hapur stoppage of train is all the more necessary, as the number of people boarding the train from Hapur is negligible, and they have several other viable options.
