It is an undeniable fact that individuals from Uttar Pradesh and Bihar undertake extensive journeys in pursuit of livelihood opportunities. However, they are often deprived of sufficient amenities during their travels via trains or other modes of transportation, compounded by inadequate compensation or wages. Consequently, they encounter myriad challenges along their journey.
This lack of proper infrastructure and fair compensation creates a multitude of problems. The lack of sufficient trains creates a bottleneck for these migrant workers. General compartments are often overcrowded and stifling, while sleeper berths offer little respite. Even AC coaches raise concerns about their true functionality and overall condition. This state of affairs demands accountability from both state and central governments. Launching new trains strategically could significantly benefit these travelers.
It was constitutionally solemnly resolved to equip every Indian citizen with education and to make well-educated nation but still illiteracy rate is up, that causes to increase poverty rate. Comparing to other countries, India produces more workers than educates. Off course, workers are backbone of the country but educates are real spirit of the nation. The issue runs deeper than just travel woes.
The choice now lies with the citizens. Do we prioritize immediate survival with a low-skilled workforce, or invest in education to build a brighter future for generations to come?
