Indian Railways scores high on pollution index but that does not seem to bother the administration much

SPREAD OVER 65,000 km and ferrying 2.8 million tons of goods plus 24 million passengers daily, Indian Railways can be called the most populous Indian city on wheels. And just like any other city, railways also eats up resources and generates waste on the way. In fact, railways is the biggest consumer of energy in India guzzling down 2567.37 million litres of diesel and 16105.00 million units of electricity.
