Big war of words between Reel Minister & Leer MP.
Vaishnav vs Gokhale regarding VB Sleeper Trains.
Here are the tweets & My take on this after doing simple maths.
See here Rs. 58000 Crore/3200 Coaches = 18.125 Crore/Coach & Rs. 58000 Crore/3192 coaches = 18.17 Crore/Coach. Now 3192 Coaches X 18.125 Crore/Coach = Rs. 57855 Crores. Hence difference is

more...
= Rs. 58000 Crore - Rs. 57855 Crore = 145 Crore herfer. Cost increment from Order 1 to Order 2 = 145 Crore/3192 = Rs. 4,54,260.65 per coach.

Note that Order 1 was 200 VB Sleeper Trainsets having 16 coaches & Order 2 is 133 VB Sleeper Trainsets having 24 coaches. Order1 - Order2 is 8 coach less in total. Rs. 145 Crore/8 Coaches = Rs. 18.125 Crore/ Coach.

So IR paying Rs. 145 Crore more for Order 2 as the Total Value of Order is at Rs. 58000 Crore.

It's like catching a mouse running all over. The maintainance cost of the train is paid yearly to the manufacturers for 35 years. Rs 245 cr /35 is 7cr per year per train set which is earlier 6cr for 16 coach. Every financial equation is the same as last year bidding.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
