Notice published for All India BGM of AILRSA

WP TO WAP4-INDEED A GREAT TECHNOLOGICAL LEAP!

BUT THE INDIAN RAILWAYS’ LOCO DRIVERS LIMP!!

Dear Comrades,                                                                                                                

From WP Coal locos to WAP 7/WAG 9 (AC) locos is indeed a great technological leap for the great Indian Railways that frequents National Geographic Channel repeatedly. But when you look at the working conditions and emoluments of the end users that is the Loco Pilots it is extremely depressing and frustrating. We, the Loco Pilots were born on 16^th April 1853 when the first train chugged out from Bombay (present Mumbai-CST, for you and me) to Thane. That means 158 long years. We were repeatedly re-molded from coal to Diesel to AC traction. The transformation was not easy for the loco pilots due to the anti labour policies of Railway Board and the bureaucrats. We, the Loco Pilots of Indian Railways continue to suffer even as WE KEEP THE ‘WHELLS-OF-ECONOMY’ OF THE NATION ZIPPING. Time for us to put brakes and fight for our legitimate rights. This GB will be dedicated solely on this format.

Bangalore Metro – A Carnival on Wheel

By Smriti Rao
Commuting in Bangalore isn’t for the faint-hearted.
Almost three months after moving to India’s IT hub, I had barely ventured out of my apartment. Shifting to the city from Mumbai, where I had navigated short distances by puttering about in an auto-rickshaw and traversed larger areas by hopping on a local train, my mobility was ruthlessly curbed.
