I SUPPORT THE BANDH TODAY AT BORIVILI 100%
Today there was a bandh (or protest) at Borivili station. I needed to get to DN road near Churchgate and knew nothing of the bandh.
"Times Now" TV seemed to imply by 10:30 am that the problem was over and I construed from their comments that they believed that the bandh at least partly caused the delay. When my wife and I got to Vasai Road station shortly after 10:30 am, people were spilling from the platform and station staff would not even sell tickets because they did not know when, if ever, trains would start again.
So "Times Now" TV was quite misleading, and so cannot be trusted for actual travel news at this time. Maybe Lalu Prasad is paying "Times Now" bribes to publish false information, who knows ?
We know what caused the delay. The Government, the opposition parties, and I suppose up to a point the railways and associated enterprises. We know what happened after track quadrupling, which obviously sounds as if it should have made some improvement, and took years for travellers to obtain. THINGS ACTUALLY GOT WORSE.
DO NOT VOTE FOR ANY POLITICAN WHO WILL NOT IMPROVE WESTERN RAILWAYS DRAMATICALLY.
