  • Names of Trains
    NAMES OF TRAINS Agniveena Express 2341/ 2342 Howrah – Asansol (ER Howrah division) In Bangla it means “The Fiery Lute”. This is the name given to the collection of poems by the celebrated Bengali poet, musician, revolutionary and philosopher, Kazi Nazrul Islam. He was born in Burdwan district in 1899 and died in Dhaka in 1976. He is the national poet of Bangladesh, and also honoured in India. Ahilyanagari Express 6325/ 6326 Indore – Thiruvananthapuram Central (SR Thiruvananthapuram division) Rajmata Ahilyadevi Holkar (1725-1795, ruled 1767-1795) also known as the Philosopher Queen was a Holkar dynasty Queen of the Malwa kingdom. She took over reigns of the kingdom after the death of her husband and father-in-law. She moved the capital to Maheshwar south of Indore on the Narmada River. She also built temples and Dharamshalas (free lodging)at sacred sites outside her kingdom, at prominent religious places like Dwarka, Kashi Vishwanath in Varanasi, Ujjain, Nasik, Parli Vaijnath and Somnath. The city of Indore is sometimes called Ahilyanagari in her memory. Ahimsa Express 1095/ 1096 Ahmadabad – Pune (CR Pune division) The name is also sometimes given to 1087/ 1088 Veraval – Pune Express, 1089/ 1090 Jodhpur – Pune Express and 1091/ 1092 Bhuj – Pune Express, as all these trains are “derived” from 1095/ 1096. Ahimsa is a Sanskrit term meaning “to do no harm” (literally, the avoidance of violence or himsa). Ahimsa was one of the main principles which Gandhiji followed in his life. Pune was the place where Gandhiji was imprisoned and where his wife passed away, and Ahmadabad was where he set up his Ashram.

  • Indian Railways Budget Speech 2000-01
    Indian Railways Budget Speech 2000-01 Speech of Kumari Mamata Banerjee Introducing the Railway Budget for 2000-01, on 25th February 2000 Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise to present the Budget Estimates for the year 2000-2001 for the Indian Railways. Introduction 2. I deem it to be a rare honour to be able to present the first Railway Budget on the threshold of a new millennium. Let me avail myself of this opportunity to convey on behalf of the Railway family and on my own behalf, our sincere millennium greetings to you and to the Hon’ble Members of this august House. 3. I thank, first of all, our respected Prime Minister Shri Atal Behari Vajpayeeji for his valued guidance. It is slightly over four months that I have taken over the responsibility of the Indian Railways, the largest public transport system in the country. Four months is, perhaps, a short time. But, I feel, it is long enough to understand the working of an organisation. 4. Sir, permit me, therefore, to give a brief overview of where the Indian Railways stand at the dawn of the new century. Growth of the Railways since inception has directly contributed to the economic and social development of the nation. Indian Railways having a route length of over sixtytwo thousand eight hundred kilometers, are the second largest Railway undertaking in the world under a single management. With 16 lakh employees running 8000 passenger trains and 5500 goods trains every day, moving 1.36 cr passengers and 12 lakh tonnes of goods daily, Railways are truly called the ‘lifeline of the nation’.

    Indian Railways Budget Speech 2004-05 (Final) Speech of Shri Lalu Prasad Introducing the Railway Budget, for 2004-05, on 6 th July, 2004 Mr. Speaker Sir, I rise to present the Budget Estimates for 2004-05 for the Indian Railways. The previous Government had presented an interim budget on 30 th January, 2004 when approval for ‘Vote-on-Account’ for the first four months of this financial year for railways’ expenditure was obtained. 2. Sir, this is the first Railway Budget of the United Progressive Alliance Government, which assumed office on 22 nd May, 2004. Within the short time available to me, I have made an attempt to identify the challenges and difficulties faced by the Railways and outline measures to overcome the same apart from taking note of thrust areas of the Common Minimum Programme. In this regard I look forward to the valuable inputs of the Hon’ble members of this august House. In fact, to start with, I have already written to all the members of this and the Upper House indicating the on going projects and important works in their respective areas and inviting their suggestions for further improvement in the facilities. Special attention will be given to these suggestions and appropriate decision will be taken on the proposals relating to projects after carrying out surveys wherever necessary, giving primacy to the more neglected areas. 3. Indian Railways, the prime movers of the nation, have the distinction of being one of the largest railway systems in the world under a single management. Its contribution to the nation’s progress is immeasurable and it has a dual role to play as a commercial organization as well as a vehicle for fulfillment of aspirations of the society at large.
