|            | Patna,   (Bihar Times): Chief minister Nitish Kumar on
  Monday wondered as to why the   Railways have not asked
  the state government to increase the strength of   the
  Government Reserve Police nor have they augmented the
  strength of   Railway Protection Force even though the
  number of trains passing through or   originating from
  the state has increased much in the last few   years.
 The chief minister, while talking to newsmen after the
  Janata   Durbar, held the Railways responsible for the
  rise in crime in trains. He   reitereated that the state
  government had always shown its eagerness in   allotting
  land for the developmental works be it for the
  Railways or any   other ministry.
 
 He asked both the Railway Minister Lalu Prasad   and      Union Minister for Steel and   Fertilisers Ram Vilas
  Paswan to concentrate on the functioning of   their
  respective ministries rather than poke their nose   in
  the affairs of the state government. Nitish said that
  none of the   railway projects, except those in Lalu’s
  own constituency, was making any   progress. All this
  was happening because the RJD chief was more busy   in
  all the other works than running the ministry.
 
 On the issue of   dividing the Dalits he said Paswan
  must be thankful for constituting the Maha   Dalit    Commission as several steps   were being taken to
    improve the condition of Dalits on the basis of   an
    interim report submitted recently.
