These findings suggest the need for a comprehensive review and potential overhaul of the policy to address its shortcomings and better align with its original goals.

Indian Railways faces overcrowding issues, recently highlighted by a stampede in New Delhi, claiming 18 lives. Despite this, the railway system continues to sell unreserved tickets, which are vital for low-income travelers. The unreserved category allows flexible, affordable travel but results in overcrowded trains. Social responsibility and complex logistical challenges prevent limiting ticket sales. For many, unreserved tickets are the only affordable travel option. While the overcrowding issue is evident, restricting access could exclude millions of low-income passengers who rely on this service for their daily commute.

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has criticized the Samajwadi Party (SP) for appointing Azam Khan, a "non-Sanatani," to oversee the 2013 Kumbh Mela. Addressing the state assembly, Adityanath highlighted that during the SP's tenure, the then Chief Minister did not personally oversee the Kumbh arrangements, delegating the responsibility to Khan instead.
