Trains for women only in India, good or bad of it !!.

India has problems with over crowding in Trains.It is very difficult for handicapped and not most agile of people to travel in them . For women it is doubly difficult to protect the dignity,honor and that feminine charm while traveling in trains.

India's new female railway minister(Mamta Banerji) has solution in women only trains .For short term it may be accepted as a solution to help professional women to travel. Segregation is not the solution for overcrowding and bad service.It is time that enough seats be created so that anybody who wishes to travel may travel in comfort.It is better for india to Double the railway lines and improve the seating in numbers and comfort to international standards.

It is also very important to note that India can not afford to go to Automobile age without ruining its economy and environment .Railways( electric) are the best solution in short as well as long run.If India is able to bring nuclear power as fuel for electric generation it will save the hydro carbon polution for sure and use electricity as in electric trains in transportation.Noneed of hybrid or electric cars.

India does not need prohibitively expensive solutions for simple problems.It is lucky that it can exploit efficiencies of scale and density to its advantage.Scale is smaller compact and more efficient.Need to create lakes waterways, dams,nuclear ,hydro,solar,and power generation.Number one factor for India's slow growth has been its inability to produce enough electricity.
With its society getting better educated and better reproductive information, size of indian families has started to shrink without the cruel and harsh methods adopted by China or total failure of the systems in Pakistan.

India needs to improve all the infrastructure in a public service model .It will will fail as a total for profit enterprise.Proper measures have to be taken where national agenda for development moves forward.First step is to bring the lot of poorest of the Indians up.INdia needs to bypass the Auto age and take the benefits of information and nuclear age for its citizens
