    It is high time Indian Railways upgrade the bogies to the International Standard. The suspension springs need improvement so that the train will not roll and shake while speeding. The doors of the bogies should automatically shut while the train is in motion. The toilets need improvement and the trains are lacking cleanliness inside due to various reasons. One of the culprit is messy food and liquid beverages served inside. They spill over and left unattended.

    While I fully agree with your comment, may I add to it....

    and most of the dirty Indians be trained to cleanup the mess and stop eating paan and spitting.

    Incidentally I once read an article which states India as a big spittoon, couldn't help but agree to that either.
