The best way to modernise the railways would be to break the state monopoly – Economist Article<\/p>\n

May 23rd 2015<\/p>\n

In need of private input<\/p>\n

A WHIRL OF activity fills the dimly lit carriage. Passengers jostle and rip open paper bags containing linen for their bunks. It is a relief to leave the stench of Bangalore station, where tracks double as latrines. The Hospet overnight service departs a few minutes late, trundles along for 400km (250 miles) and arrives on time at dawn.<\/p>\n

Like all Indian trains, it is crammed. Its cabins are worn and a bit grubby, the toilets holes in the floor. It is also cheap. A nine-hour trip on the best, air-conditioned berths costs 3,200 rupees ($50) for a family of four. Ticket prices were frozen by populist politicians<\/p>\n

who long ran the network, and only recently started to rise modestly.The railways are a huge business: each day 19,000 trains carry 23m people and 3m tonnes of freight. But the state-owned monopoly is badly run. A former cabinet minister points to overstaffi<\/span><\/span>ng, factionalism and bureaucracy.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A comparison with China is instructive. In 1990 that country had less track than India, but since then China\u2019s rail network has grown by well over half, to 112,000km, whereas India\u2019s has remained much the same, at 65,000km. As a share of GDP, China invests three times as much in its railways as India does. Spending per person is 11 times higher.<\/p>\n

India\u2019s politicians levied high freight charges to subsidise cheap rides for passengers.<\/p>\n

That diverted goods to less effi<\/span><\/span>cient, more polluting, overcrowded roads. Now rail carries <\/span><\/span>just 30% of India\u2019s freight, compared with 65% in the 1970s. Delivering coal to power plants is a crucial task for railways in both countries. In India this is a third costlier than in China, and a third slower\u2014one reason for so many power cuts.<\/p>\n

In a test of its eff<\/span><\/span>orts at state-directed modernisation, the new government wants to fix <\/span><\/span>this. An offi<\/span><\/span>cial estimate suggests that for every rupee that the output of the railways goes <\/span><\/span>up, the economy as a whole will be lifted by 3.3 rupees as other industries benefit from<\/p>\n

improved effi<\/span><\/span>ciency. Suresh Prabhu, the capable railways minister, plans a capital spending <\/span><\/span>splurge of $140 billion over five years. He plans to introduce marketmechanisms where possible. To stimulate competition, he is creating 20 state-run corporations and perhaps 60 special-purpose vehicles that will be given autonomy to run parts of the network. Private (including foreign) partners can take part in much of this.<\/p>\n

Eventually units that run schools and hospitals and produce bottled water could be sold 0ff.<\/p>\n

\u00a0But outright privatisation of the country\u2019s oldest government institution is not <\/span><\/span>envisaged. The industry\u2019s 1.3m employees and strong unions would not wear it.<\/p>\n

In an early experiment, beginning in Bhopal, private investors will get the chance to overhaul decrepit railway stations. Thanks to better management, punctuality, revenues,safety, catering and hygiene are also improving. Traffi<\/span><\/span>c is up by 15% this year, says Mr <\/span><\/span>Prabhu, and will rise steeply next year.<\/p>\n

Adding tracks is harder. In the long-promised Delhi-Mumbai freight corridor, which is meant to open by 2019, the previous government managed to award only 600km of a 1,500km line to contractors.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat matters is to be market-friendly, completely transparent,\u201d says Mr Prabhu.<\/p>\n

Crucially, he needs to make it impossible for any successor to return to the old political meddling, when employment and tracks were handed out (and sold) to cronies. Somepowers currently held by the minister will soon be devolved to an independent regulator.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am rushing to give my powers away,\u201d says Mr Prabhu, \u201cso no populist politician would again want to have this job.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
