Indian Railways, one of the world’s largest rail networks, often faces delays that disrupt passenger schedules across the country. Causes include track congestion, outdated infrastructure, weather conditions, and maintenance issues. While efforts like electrification, station upgrades, and better signaling systems are underway, punctuality remains a challenge. Trains running late not only affect daily commuters but also impact long-distance travelers relying on tight schedules. Passengers frequently experience frustration due to unpredictable delays and lack of timely updates. Indian Railways must continue modernizing and optimizing operations to enhance efficiency, ensure on-time performance, and regain the trust of millions of daily travelers.
