Another Swades. Only that the people didn't need a Shah Rukh Khan to show the way. In Rajasthan, people power have done what a lethargic Railways could not do. Frustrated by the repeated rejections of their demands for a railway station, the villagers built their own railway station. All the villagers chipped and within a few days there was a railway station. Officials in Indian Railways should now die of shame. The Indian Express today has an excellent story on how villagers of Balwantpura in Jhunjhunu district of Rajasthan built their own railway stop.
