  • Indian Railways Budget Speech 2005-06 744 Speech of Shri Lalu
    Indian Railways Budget Speech 2005-06 Speech of Shri Lalu Prasad Introducing the Railway Budget for 2005-06, on 26 th February 2005. Mr. Speaker, 1. Sir, I rise to present the Budget Estimates for 2005-06 for the Indian Railways. I am presenting this budget at a point in time when the Indian economy reflects a vibrant growth. The Tenth Plan envisages an economic growth of eight per cent. This requires significant investment in infrastructure, of which railways are important and integral part, through larger public and private investment. This also needs greater efficiency in these sectors and sound fiscal management for financial viability. 2. Indian Railways have a critical role in ensuring the continued economic development of the country. We have drawn up an ambitious plan for meeting the increasing and emerging demands of the economy through the provision of world-class infrastructure. We will work not only towards streamlining the passenger services further and ensuring a palpable improvement in the quality of passenger services but also initiate a gamut of commercial, operational and investment – oriented initiatives in the freight sector thereby doing everything possible to improve Railways’ share in the transport sector. I shall outline these policy decisions in the course of my speech. Review of Physical and Financial Performance in 2004-05 3. Sir, when I presented the first railway budget of the United Progressive Alliance Government, the so called intelligentsia had criticized it as a populist one since I had not increased railway fares and freight. I have immense pleasure in reporting to this August House that with the untiring efforts of lakhs of railway employees, the physical as well as financial performance of Railways in the first nine months of the current financial year has been excellent, thereby belying this criticism.

Nearly 17 million passengers were booked daily and 744.48 million tonnes of freight traffic was loaded during the year.

  • Appendix 1 Nepal Calendar—Western Calendar
    Appendix 1 Nepal Calendar—Western Calendar 1.1 Nepal Calendar: Bikram Sambat1 Bikram Sambat, (Devanagri: , abbreviated ‘‘B.S.’’) is the calendar established by Indian emperor Vikramaditya. It is a popularly used calendar in India and the official calendar of Nepal. In addition to Bikram Samwat, the Gregorian calendar and the original Nepalese calendar, Nepal Sambat, are also used in Nepal. Nepal Sambat was officially used in Nepal till the era of Chandra Shamsher (*1929), but due to its limited use these days, it is not focused on in this study. The Bikram Sambat was founded by the Tuar Rajput emperor Vikramaditya of Ujjain following his victory over the Sakas in 56 B.C. It is a solar calendar2 based on ancient Hindu tradition. The Bikram Sambat calendar is 56.7 years ahead in count of the numbers of year of the solar Gregorian calendar. For example, the year 2068 BS began in middle of April 2011 and will end in middle of April in 2012. The calendar starts with the first day of the month Baisakh, which usually falls on the 13th or 14th of April in the Gregorian calendar. 1.2 Western Calendar: Gregorian Calendar3 ‘‘The Gregorian Calendar has become the internationally accepted civil calendar’’..4 It was first proposed by the Calabrian doctor Aloysius Lilius, and decreed by Pope Gregory XIII, after whom it was named, on 24 February 1582 by the papal bull Inter gravissimas. It is a reform of the Julian calendar and continues 1 Bikram Sambat information is taken mostly from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bikram_ Samwat (accessed July 20, 2012).
