Only yesterday I saw a TV feature on Indian railways, that was sickening. For example, even in AC 2-tier carriages, the toilets are shockingly filthy. The railway tracks all over the country are in sad disrepair. WHY CAN'T THE GOVT PLOUGH BACK THE PROFITS AND MAKE THE RAILWAYS AS GOOD AS ANY IN THE WORLD? The management idiots who called la loo to give them lectures PLEASE take note. In the circumstances, would you continue cconsidering (la)loo as a good manager

Can we believe any claims made by the Cahrachor?

Laluji age bado hum tumare sat hai by RS on 26 Feb 2008

Great Job Lalu ji. Now atleast yr adverseries should now take note of yr good work and keep their mouth shut. During the NDA rule railway has deficit in their budget. But I am sure the Lalu haters particular BJP sycophants will definately ask for CBI enquiry into surplus budget. But dont worry you deserve accolade for bringing railways into profit making. Jai Lalu ji ki.

Great Laluji keep up the good job!! by Jiten Patel on 26 Feb 2008

In last four years Laluji earned Rs 68000,00,00,000 for India that too without asking poor people to get off the train! Railway was running in loss before Laluji took over. Great Laluji keep up the good job!!

Dr. Lalu by Avijit Roy on 26 Feb 2008

Hats Off to Dr. Lalu. He is really an excellent money maker. CEOs of who is who companies should make a beeline before him to understand the neighty gritty of earning money for Railway and for the Country.
