THE MINISTER OF DEFENCE (SHRI RAJ NATH SINGH) responding to the issue raised by several hon.

The miserable condition of the farmers is largely attributed to those who have been in power for long. I, however, want to place on record that our Government has been making every effort to double the farmers' income.

THE MINISTER OF EXTERNAL AFFAIRS AND MINISTER OF OVERSEAS INDIAN AFFAIRS (SHRIMATI SUSHMA SWARAJ): On the issue which was raised yesterday in the House, I, with utmost responsibility and categorically and equivocally would like to inform this House that the Government of India has no connection to the visit by Shri Ved Prakash Vaidik to Pakistan or his meeting with Hafiz Saeed there. Neither before leaving for Pakistan nor at his arrival there, he informed the Government that he was to meet Hafiz Saeed there. This was his purely private visit and meeting. It has been alleged here that he was somebody‟s emissary, somebody‟s disciple or the Government of India had facilitated the meeting. This is totally untrue as well as unfortunate.

    Indian Railways Budget Speech 1987-88 Speech of Shri Madhavrao Scindia Introducing the Railway Budget for 1987-88, on 25 th February 1987 Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise to present the Revised Estimates for the year 1986-87 and the Budget Estimates for the year 1987-88 for the Indian Railways. Introduction 2. I am happy to inform the House that the performance of the Indian Railways both in 1985- 86, and in the nine months so far of the current year, has been one of continued improvement. The zest and enthusiasm evoked in1985 continues to inspire Railwaymen through the length and breadth of our country. I would like to record my appreciation for the way they have responded to the challenges of their tasks, establishing new records and crossing new milestones. There has been a tremendous increase in the productivity of both man and machine. In fact, so great was the improvement in transport efficiency that it is a matter of pride for me to state that the Indian Railways are amongst the leaders in the world in freight capacity utilisation leaving behind almost all railways even of the developed world. The Net Tonne Kilometres per Wagon per Day (B.G.), which is the most comprehensive efficiency indicator for railway freight operations, soared to 1296 in 1985-86 from 1150 in 1984-85, an improvement of as much as 12.7% in one single year. It was because of this, that in spite of no increase in the net wagon fleet, we managed to move as much as 21.6 million tonnes more as compared to the previous year, surpassing our target by 9.4 million tonnes and recording a total transport output of 206 billion net tonne kilometres, thereby, crossing for the first time, the landmark figure of 200 billion.
