  • Railway Budget 07-08 Speech of Shri Lalu Prasad
    Railway Budget 07-08 Speech of Shri Lalu Prasad February 26, 2007 Introducing the Railway Budget 2007-2008 Mr Speaker Sir, Presenting my fourth consecutive Railway Budget, I have a tremendous sense of pride and gratitude. Pride in the fact that without imposing undue burden on the common man, the Railways are poised to create history by generating a cash surplus before Dividend of Rs 20,000 cr as against Rs 14,700 cr in the previous year. This is the same Railway that defaulted on payment of Dividend and whose fund balances dipped to Rs 359 cr in 2001. I express heartfelt gratitude towards 14 lakh railway employees who in the face of stiff competition have conquered all odds with an indomitable spirit displaying matchless zeal, vigour and teamwork. Sir, Lord Krishna was acclaimed as Giridhar when in a moment of crisis he lifted Mount Govardhan on his finger. However, he did this with the supporting hands of thousands of fellow villagers. Even though people are giving me the credit for the turnaround of the Railways, with all humility I would like to share with the august House that this miracle has been brought about through the tireless efforts of 14 lakh railway employees and unbounded affection and support of my country men. Sir, I would just say: Navajis hai sabki, karam hai sabhi ka, Bade fakhra se ham bulandi par aaye. Tarakki ke sare mayaron se aage, Naye dhang laaye, nayee soch laaye. 2 By rendering an unprecedented surplus inspite of the reduction in passenger fares, we have disproved the myth that Railways were sinking in to a financial crisis due to social obligations.

    Govt. of India Ministry of Finance Directorate of Revenue Intelligence Guwahati Zonal Unit Krishnanagar, Chandmari, Guwahati 781003 email ID – [email protected] Press Note Dated, Guwahati the 26th May 2018 Acting on specific intelligence, Directorate of Revenue Intelligence intercepted two persons near Guwahati Railway Station and recovered 24 pieces of ivory totally weighing 5.838 Kgs from their possession on 26.05.2018 at 1300 hours. The interception took place as the recipient of the ivory Shri Suraj Kr Das hailing from West Bengal was in the process of receiving the package from one Md. Badrul Hussain, hailing from Hojai district of Assam. Shri Suraj Kr Das is a contractual employee of Railways working as a coach attendant of Saraighat Express Train. Interrogation of the two persons have revealed that Md. Badrul Hussain had picked up the package containing ivory from a person at Hojai in Assam and was supposed to deliver it to ShriSuraj Kr. Das who would have in turn delivered it to another person at New Jalpaiguri who would have smuggled it to Nepal through the border townships at North Bengal. It has been confirmed by Wildlife officials that these tusks have been extracted after killing at least five adult and sub-adult elephants, and since the ivory has been sourced from Hojai it is believed that the elephants were in all likelihood killed in the Karbi Anglong region of Assam. It is a known fact that endangered species are regularly being slaughtered for their parts especially because of the rising demand in the international market. In a recent case DRI had seized 12.410 Kgs of ivory from a bus at Siliguri on 15.02.2018 .

  • Speech of Shri Lalu Prasad Introducing the Railway Budget 2006-07 on 24Th February 2006
    Speech of Shri Lalu Prasad Introducing the Railway Budget 2006-07 On 24th February 2006 1. Mr. Speaker Sir, I rise to present the Budget Estimates 2006-07 for the Indian Railways at a point in time when, there has been a historical turn around in the financial situation of the Indian Railways. Our fund balances have grown to Rs. 11,000 cr and our internal generation, before dividend has also reached a historic level of Rs. 11,000 cr. With this unprecedented achievement, we are striding to realize the Hon’ble Prime Minister’s dream of making Indian Railways the premier railway of the world. Sir, this is the same Indian Railways which, in 2001 had deferred dividend payment, whose fund balances had reduced to just Rs. 350 cr and about which experts had started saying that it is enmeshed a terminal debt trap. You might term this a miracle, but I was confident that : “Mere zunu ka natija zaroor niklega, isee siaah samandar se noor niklega.” 2. Sir, the whole nation can see today that track is the same, railwaymen are the same but the image of Indian Railways is aglow. This has been the result of the acumen, devotion and determination of lakhs of railwaymen. Sir, the general perception so far has been that Railways’ finances cannot be improved without increasing second class passenger fares. But my approach is entirely different. In my view, improvements can only be brought about by raising the quality of services, reducing unit costs and sharing the resultant gain with customers. Therefore, instead of following the beaten path, we decided to tread a new one.
