Indian Railways is giving more importance to the redressal of public grievance like never before. A source shares that this matter is being directly monitored by Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi and the Minister for Railways Suresh Prabhu, during the periodical performance review meetings with officials. For this, all sources of complaints are being reviewed, including online complaint portals, social media, IVRS, etc. Indian Railways have disposed about 90% of the complaints received through such mechanisms.
