Dear All,

This is to inform you that the Indian Railways has set up a Multi-departmental Innovation Promotion Group as per the budget announcement of the Railway Minister and has sought innovative suggestions from the general public, educational institutions, citizens, and the industry which may help in:

  1. Improvement in system efficiency and productivity of resources.
  2. Introduction of modern systems and technologies.
  3. Achieving better customer satisfaction through value addition to customer services.
  4. Improvement in safety, reliability and reduction in maintenance costs.

I feel that Praja members should send in their suggestions on the five issues that have been mentioned above. Whether it gets accepted or not is another matter. We should try. Why don't we start off in this thread itself? Please write your suggestions here.

Need Information About CRS Proposals in Master Plan 2015

Gautamrao - 8 September, 2008 - 05:41

Dear Silk Board and others,

I wasn't aware of the CRS concept or proposal. I came across something similar in the CTTP which was done by RITES Ltd.

Can somebody clarify this? Where can get details about CRS and whether it is a part of the CTTP designed by RITES?

Right here Gautam

We had posted a lot of stuff from CTTP here on Praja.

See http://praja.in/7-5-commuter-rail-system

And then, see http://praja.in/tags/CRS for all posts flagged CRS, there may be more info in them. You may have to do some filtering as sometimes members may have flagged a post CRS without real relevance.

good to know that

Thanks Gautam. Just yesterday I had made a posting stating that Railways could afford to be a little more customer oriented, and the very next day, this happens - talk of coincidences. For whatever, it's worth, I am taking this seriously, and sending out my gyaan - will post it here also.

I expect our Mangalore friends are joining in too.

A small suggestion

Dear sir,

Thanks for your response. It is my view that before each one of us sends individually, we should discuss it here and then, when we get a clearer picture, we can send individually or from Praja's side. We may even get better ideas or improve upon our existing by discussing here. What do you say?
