OBSERVATION BY THE SPEAKER HON. SPEAKER: Hon. Members, although Rule 331G of the Rules of Procedure has been suspended to enable the House to pass the Demands for Grants without the same being referred to the concerned Departmentally Related Standing Committees. The Demands would, however, stand referred to the Standing Committees, after they have been constituted, for examination and report to the House so that the Committees can make suitable recommendations which may be used in the preparation of Demands for Grants for the next year. ______ THE UNION BUDGET- 2019-2020 DEMANDS FOR GRANTS-2019-2020 Ministry of Railways SHRI ADHIR RANJAN CHOWDHURY initiating said: The Indian Railways has been suffering capacity constraints. The traffic flow on the rail network is highly uneven and imbalanced. Line capacity is severely constrained due to introduction of more trains over the year. All these things affect railway's ability to meet customer expectations. The Minister of Railway has claimed that they will mobilise Rs.50 lakh crore but he has failed to mention as to how he will mobilise this huge corpus. The Budget does not make any provision in this regard. Operating ratio is one of the parameters to assess the efficiency of the Railways and this Budget clearly shows that the Indian Railways' operating ratio is not sustainable. The total internal revenue has come down. The net surplus on the expenditure side shows a negative trend. Everybody knows that the Railways need huge amount of funds during the last three years. The Government of India has signed a number of MOUs with the LIC, France, China, Russia etc. but there is no news of execution of these MOUs. The Government has made its intention clear to corporatize the 7 production units of the Railways. All these production units are profit earning units. After corporatisation, the Government will move on to privatise these units. This decision of the Government has created unrest among the railway employees. Indian Railways have a network of more than 1.17 lakh kilometers; some of it is aged and some over-burdened. Only 4000 kilometers of track, that is 3.5 per cent of the total rail lines have been renewed. As for electrification, till December 2018, 30212 kms. of track was electrified. The Railways have failed several times to meet the deadline of constructing 334 kms. of dedicated freight corridor along trunk routes and have set April 2020 as the new target. Under the Diamond Quadrilateral project of high speed train network, proposed high-speed projects between Delhi-Chandigarh, Delhi-Bhopal, Delhi- Kolkata and Delhi-Mumbai are yet to take off. The Vande Bharat Express has the capacity to run at 160 kms/hour but is running at the maximum speed of 110-130 km/hour. Among the top 21 commodities moved by the railway, fruits and vegetables have the lowest share of transportation. The Railways have failed to install bio-toilet in all coaches, as promised in 2017-18 Budget Speech. The Railways have failed to provide lifts and escalators on the 500 stations. There is no punctuality. Trains are being cancelled. The average speed has come down. The Government has reduced its contribution in the Depreciation Reserve Fund. The growth rate of Railways' earnings from its core business of running freight and passenger trains has been declining. Indian Railways has been losing out on high potential market such as FMCG, hazardous materials, automobiles and containerized cargo. It is the stated policy of the NITI Aayog that if there is a need to hike passenger fare, it must be passed on to the common people. But the Government has some social obligations too and these must be honoured. Besides I would request the Minister to allocate funds for Bengal also. I would also like to draw the attention of the Minister towards the Kasim Bazar station in my district Murshidabad where the people have to suffer a lot because of the fault of the engineers. SHRI SUNIL KUMAR SINGH: The Indian Railways ensure the unity and integrity of the country. After coming into power, our Government has ensured that the rich cultural heritage of India gets imprinted on the Railway stations and offices. The hon. Prime Minister has a clear vision with regard to the role of the Railways. He has envisioned the Indian Railways as the growth engine for the development of our country. The Railways now has been receiving sufficient amount of funds. UPA Government has executed only 10 per cent of the promises they have made to the public. This is because of lack of political will and administrative inefficiency. National interest was never the priority of the UPA Government. Our Government never executes the plans under pressure groups. National interest is the supreme for our Government. During the last 30 years before 2014, only 317 projects were completed out of 676 but our Government fulfilled all the projects which it promised. We execute works by planning in advance and planning in details. Our Government has fulfilled the hopes and aspirations of the people of India. Government is making efforts to solve the problems of Railways through massive capital investment and completing the projects on time.

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. I would like to reiterate that the Government of India has no relation to it whatsoever. *MATTERS UNDER RULE 377 (i) SHRI BHARAT SINGH laid a statement regarding need to start work on multipurpose project for development of various facilities in Ballia Parliamentary constituency, Uttar Pradesh.
