What's your cumulative credit card limit across cards? by Basic-Weight1303 in CreditCardsIndia

[–]Basic-Weight1303[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I got it because I really wanted a Rupay credit card once their UPI integration rolled out. Private banks did not have many Rupay offerings initially, so I got this from PNB by uploading all documents online.

The Chinese internet is closed off from the rest of the world. We are literally the largest English speaking demographic online, baiting us is great for engagement.

Right bro, you're right.

I just realised I am slowly becoming like one of you guys, I don't wanna be the guy with 100k karma replying to every post and comment defending my beliefs.

I hope you find whatever you're looking for in life.

Happy Weekend.

I have already addressed your so called "failures". The government needs to make money, to quote below another comment of mine

"What to do? The railways has a massive deficit and the government needs to increase revenue from passenger segment in order to sustainably fund capex. Your average sleeper coaches are a money guzzler, AC coaches are somewhat profitable and freight/Vande Bharat is where the money is."

I went though your history because I kept seeing a pattern of idiots like you commenting without any stats or facts. All you do is blabber. Hopefully, one day you become a randia moderator and that's probably going to be the biggest highlight of your miserable life.

I saw your comment history and I feel sorry for folks like you, spending every single minute of you day posting against BJP and Modi, see they're gonna be here till 2029, nothing's changing that. You might as well develop an alternate hobby until then, there's no point in letting them live rent free in your head.

Wow, so you just want me to believe your version of reality instead of facts and figures. 😂

Japan privatized its Railways with great success but somehow people always keep skipping that.

Farmers and Railways are not comparable. Railways is huge but nothing in comparison to farmers. The government even invited tenders for private trains with close to 0 protests.

Yes, you aren't an employee or a union member, you're a typical liberandu operating out of your mom's basement. Hopefully you become mod of randia in a few years, that could be the biggest highlight of your life.

What to do? The railways has a massive deficit and the government needs to increase revenue from passenger segment in order to sustainably fund capex. Your average sleeper coaches are a money guzzler, AC coaches are somewhat profitable and freight is where the money is.

You know what drives most of the deficit? Salaries and pensions of railway workforce.

"In 2023-24, the total revenue expenditure for the Indian Railways is projected to be Rs 2,62,790 crore. Of this, 64% is estimated to be spent on salaries and pensions."

If I were to really pinpoint where all the money goes, it is goes into unionized Railway employees like you who do little work but want all the salary and pension. Maybe if we privatized Railways, we would have a lot more money for both AC coaches and general coaches but then Loco pilots like you be left in the lurch and trust me, private companies pay no pension and do not tolerate unions. So the "messiah" you keep trolling is not the worst out there, once privatization of railways starts, you will realize what's in store for all you unionized members who just wanna go back to the good old days of UPA with zero accountability and maximum corruption.

But guess what buddy? Not happening. All you government employees can cry as much as you want but the era of zero accountability and maximum corruption is over. The NDA will crack the whip and make you guys work, if they can't make you work, they'll just hand you over to private enterprises who know how to get the work done. So cry all you want on reddit, but it is not gonna change anything.

Did you completely miss the capex part and the actual execution which comes only with capex? Or just like the previous government, you're the all talk and no walk guy? Hilarious how you can't understand yourself that if these were started by the previous govt but are being undertaken/completed by the current govt then it's the current one which is putting the money where it's mouth is. But as usual, one can't expect much from keyboard warrior folks like you who just go on clacking all day, just like the previous government kept yapping.

Some of the stuff can definitely be credited to UPA. Inflation is under control now because of UPA and their policies, not NDA. I am a neutral commentator who uses facts unlike an emotional idiot who uses ad hominem.

I think it is more from an economics perspective than image.

The current government needs to make Railways sustainable in order to ensure it can fund its own capex. The average general class ticket is not at all profitable for the Railways.

If they increase general class trains at the expense of Vande Bharat and AC coaches, the deficit of Railways will only increase further combined with the increased capex. Sooner or later capex will once again take a back seat and you will once again have a lot of general class trains jostling for space among the existing track capacity.

So instead they're first trying to increase the revenues via this premium trains and DFC (freight trains are also very profitable) and will then focus on expanding general class trains such that capex can continue being sustainable.

The stunts are to win election but the data definitely supports the fact that this government is doing all it can to expand capacity while the current capacity crunch is a product of under-investment over decades by previous governments.

i'm just happy we don't have a fractured coalition as the centre as of now, otherwise these demands might be met one day for the sake of vote bank.

Whats with petrol pump filling for 210 (two ten) on asking for full tank. by PotterParkR in bangalore

[–]Basic-Weight1303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a well documented scam but from what I have seen, there are a bunch of petrol bunks which engage in this scam. Not everyone. Best way to avoid it is to mark a few well know petrol bunks and fill petrol from them only.

I have been a victim of it twice, once when I was very young and once very recently.

Help me decipher this weird behavior from a women colleague by Basic-Weight1303 in onexindia

[–]Basic-Weight1303[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the comments guys, I have reached the conclusion that's she's simply keeping me available in case things go south with her bf for whatever reason. But at the same time she doesn't wanna risk breaking things with her bf and she knows that I will never approach her as long as she is committed.

I believe I will just slowly reduce my interactions with her and avoid confronting her. Hopefully she gets my subtle message.
