    Getting a Budget hotel is good news. Further getting to hire an executive suite for less than Rs.1,000/- is great news. But can everybody afford to hire such suites. Or will a very rich person occupy rooms in such Budget Hotels. What is the rate for an ordinary room. Further, will the Railway authorities maintain the hotel properly or will they leave it to deteriorate like Railway Stations / Railway compartments.

    This is a good proposal. Instead of by railway it should be kept under the private sector for clean and efficient use. It may be in the long run better for both customers and the railways.
