FACED with an existential challenge of continuing to
shoulder the humungous exercise of operating 22,593 trains (9,141 freight and
13,452 passenger trains) daily, the government has apparently decided to exit
from the rail transportation business. Following the December 24, 2019,
decision of the Union Cabinet to merge the eight Railway services into a single
Indian Railways Management Service (IRMS), the process of the dismantling of
the superstructure of the Indian Railways – the last of the monopolies of the
India government – has been initiated.
