         "Supply to Demand" in Public Transportation


About 2 weeks ago, Chennai witnessed a horrific train accident near St. Thomas mount railway station that perished 3 lives and 4 others were severely injured.

I have taken up an #initiative to Demand a "Real-time system" to measure the public demand for transportation and to be supplied accordingly.

#Cause:
Travel has become a basic necessity to the working class. The working class majorly lives in the outskirts and Public transportation is what they rely upon. Overcrowded trains not only cause inconvenience and suffocation but also accidents resulting in fatal injuries and results in death in many cases. Our cause is "Supply to demand" in Public transportation.

#Demand:
We urge the state to deploy a "Real-time system" to measure the demand and supply accordingly with precision. When state needs revenue, it asks for our salary in order to collect tax(Via employers or otherwise). For example, Professional tax. Similar Real-Time system can be deployed to measure and understand the demand and supply accordingly with precision.

#Question :
Why can't the state employ a "Real-time system" similar to the revenue collecting systems when it comes to the duties and responsibilities that the state has to deliver to its citizens!

Please provide suggestions if you have any. Drop your questions in the comment section.
