Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to propose the application of a decision-making tool for performance evaluation of Indian Railway zones. It basically seeks to analyze the effects of various evaluation criteria on the performance of Indian Railways using a combined multi-criteria decision-making approach which employs decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) and “VIse Kriterijumska Optimizacija kompromisno Resenje” (VIKOR) methods. Design/methodology/approach – The performance of 16 Indian Railway zones is first evaluated using DEMATEL method which addresses the inter-relationships between different criteria with the aid of a relationship structure. The VIKOR method which is a compromise ranking approach is then adopted to rank those candidate railway zones. Pareto analysis is also carried out to identify the benchmark railway zones for the under/poor performers so as to improve their operational excellence. Findings – A numerical example from Indian Railways is illustrated and solved for better understanding of the integrated decision-making tool in which the relevant information for the considered railway zones with respect to different evaluation criteria are collected from various websites and Indian Railways annual statistical report. Western and North-Eastern zones, respectively, take the first and the last positions in the derived ranking list. The relevance of selecting different performance indices/evaluation criteria is also discussed. Practical implications – The application of this integrated methodology would serve as a systematic approach for measurement of the aggregate operational performance of Indian Railway zones so as to gain valuable academic and practical insights. It is also expected to provide an insightful guidance to the railway administrators in taking valuable strategic decisions in promoting the service of Indian Railways. Originality/value – The integrated DEMATEL-VIKOR method is conceptually simple and easily comprehensible which can consider numerous attributes simultaneously. This paper enables the readers to gain some valuable inputs from a managerial perspective for Indian Railways to formulate strategies for its zones to foster better performance.

Purpose High-performance work practices (HPWPs) have been well documented within private organisations in developed country economies. Such practices, however, remain under-investigated in the public sector and in emerging economies. The purpose of this paper is to work towards filling this void, by empirically evaluating HPWP within an Indian public sector undertaking (PSU), also the world’s largest commercial public sector employer: the Indian Railways (IR). Design/methodology/approach The authors investigate whether the practices implemented in this organisation are consistent with the idea of HPWPs, and analyse how they are influenced by different stakeholders and ultimately associated with different indicators of organisational performance. The authors focused on six railway zones and interviewed a total of 62 HR practitioners. Findings The results show that most practices implemented are aligned with the idea of HPWPs, despite the existence of context-specific unique practices. Furthermore, the authors identify the influence of multiple stakeholders in decision making concerning different practices. The authors additionally found that the measurement of performance goes beyond financial indicators and several context-specific non-financial indicators are identified and their social importance is reiterated. Originality/value Theoretically, this paper utilises and contributes to the resource-based view of firms by identifying a distinctive bundle of competencies in human resources through HPWS in the IR.

Subject area Human Resource Management & Social Entrepreneurship. Study level/applicability The target audiences for the case study are undergraduate and postgraduate (e.g. BSc, MSc as well as MBA) students and also management trainees and executives who are interested in understanding the social capital enhancing practices, policies and strategies adopted by the world’s largest commercial employer to ensure complete satisfaction and contentment of 1.7 million employees and their family. Even senior management teams could be targeted in executive education programs, as this case discusses time tested practices, policies and strategies which have been sparsely discussed so far and hence can be expected to provide insights to senior corporate managers. The case also demonstrates the application of different frameworks on social capital and corporate social responsibility which can be used by the participants in their firms to assess the social capital. Case overview Indian Railways (IR) remains the world’s largest commercial employer, with approximately 1.7 million employees, which conveys the huge magnitude of social capital inventory accrued. This social capital, especially people side of IR, played a very crucial role in running the organization successfully for more than a century. As an organization, IR has guaranteed heavy importance for its employees while making decisions on strategic level. But recently, IR was moving towards automation and was cutting on cost incurred for its employees. IR was already exhibiting decreasing trend in the number of employees employed in the organization. These initiatives were resisted by IR employees due to fear of job losses and insecurity. In 2013, Chief Personnel Officer’s (CPO) of different zones have to rethink about their HR practices to assure confidence for employees on the security of their jobs and sustain the social capital accrued by IR over years. The objective of this case study is to describe the social capital accrued by IR over the years by offering livelihoods for nearly 1.7 million families across the country. Teaching note applies the frameworks on social capital in literature in the context of IR. Teaching note also discusses how CPOs of IR can pursue the change initiatives among the employees without affecting the social capital accrued so far. Expected learning outcomes Case study’s primary objective is to apply frameworks available in literature on social capital and corporate social responsibility to understand the social capital accrued by IR over decades. The case study attempts to answer the following assignment questions which forms the learning objectives of this case study: How do the existing frameworks on social capital measurement explain the social capital accrued by IR over decades? How can a firm assess its accrued social capital? How can one demonstrate the same using the case of IR? How can IR pursue change initiatives when it comes to its employees without affecting the social capital accrued over time? Supplementary materials Teaching notes are available for educators only.

In many existing methods of linear programming problem (LPP), precise values of parameters have been used but parameters of LPP are imprecise and ambiguous due to incomplete information. Several approaches and theories have been developed for dealing LPP based on fuzzy set (FS), intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS) which are characterized by membership degree, membership and non-membership degrees, respectively. It’s interesting to note that single membership and non-membership degrees do not deal properly the state of uncertainty and hesitation. Further, we face a kind of uncertainty occurs a kind of uncertainty. Interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IV-IFS) is a perfect key for handling uncertainty and hesitation than FS and IFS. In this paper, we define an interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy number (IV-IFN) and its expected interval and expected values. We also introduce the concept of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy linear programming problem (IV-IFLPP). Further, we find the solutions of IV-IFLPP and compare the obtained optimal solutions with existing methods [D. Dubey and A. Mehra, Linear programming with Triangular Intuitionistic Fuzzy Numbers, in Proc. of the 7th Conf. and of the European Society for Fuzzy Logic and Technology (EUSFLAT-LFA 2011), R. Parvathi and C. Malathi, Intuitionistic fuzzy linear optimization, Notes on Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets 18 (2012) 48–56]. Proposed technique may be used successfully in various areas in the formulation of our country’s five year plans, these include transportation, food-grain storage, urban development, national, state and district level plans, etc., The Indian Railways may use IV-IFLPP technique for linking different railway zones in more realistic way. Agricultural research institutes may use proposed technique for crop rotation mix of cash crops, food crops and fertilizer mix. Airlines can apply IV-IFLPP in the selection of routes and allocation of aircrafts to different routes. Private and public sector oil refineries may use IV-IFLPP for blending of oil ingredients to produce finished petroleum products.

The Present study examines the passengers’ opinion towards various services of Indian railways. The study is conducted in Chennai Central Station that comes under Chennai Division of Southern Railway Zone. The factors are categorised as social and economic factors of Indian rail system. Transportation sector, with inadequate resources, is one of the growing sectors of Indian economy. Punctuality, cleanliness and quality were crucial features of railway services which create a permanent impression on the passengers. The majority of the respondents have given high priority to the factor “platform ticket charges are minimum” as the economic factors of the rail system. The majority of the respondents have given high priority to the factor “facilitates group travel” as the social factor of the rail system. The suggestions for future research are offered

China’s foreign policy shift in South Asia has been largely driven by its Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), which seeks to enhance connectivity and economic cooperation across Asia and beyond. South Asia, with its strategic location and growing economic potential, has emerged as a key area of focus for China under the B RI. In this context, China has pursued a multi-pronged approach, which includes infrastructure development, economic cooperation, and strategic partnerships with key countries in the region. One of the key components of China’s foreign policy shift in South Asia has been its emphasis on infrastructure development. China has invested heavily in the construction of roads, railways, ports, and other infrastructure projects in the region, with the aim of improving connectivity and facilitating trade and commerce. These investments have been largely made through the BRI framework, which has provided China with a platform to promote its economic and strategic interests in the region. China has also sought to deepen economic cooperation with South Asian countries through the BRI. This has involved the signing of a number of bilateral and regional trade agreements, as well as the establishment of special economic zones and industrial parks. Through these initiatives, China has sought to increase its access to South Asian markets and promote the growth of its own economy. In addition to these economic initiatives, China has also sought to establish strategic partnerships with key countries in the region. This has involved strengthening its ties with countries such as Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh, which have strategic significance due to their location and their potential to provide China with access to key markets and resources. These partnerships have also involved cooperation in areas such as defense and security, with China seeking to establish a greater presence in the Indian Ocean region.

Background: The nationwide lockdown imposed in four phases incited by the spread of the COVID in India led simultaneous ramifications, the most rampant of them being the mass exodus of labor migrants to their native places enhancing their multidimensional vulnerability. This paper analyses five dimensions of the vulnerability of the migrant workers returning from high contagion zones in million-plus cities to low-risk rural areas, its contribution to the surge of COVID infections in their native places, and challenges to the public health system. Data and methods: The SARS-CoV-2 attributable cases and deaths have been taken from the COVID19 India Org website (https://www.covid19india.org/. The total number of COVID cases per lakh population is computed using a district-level projected population as on March 31, 2020. The data on reverse migration has been collated from the Ministry of Railways. It deals with six states having the maximum share of reverse migration in the country. Indicators measuring vulnerability towards preventive practices of COVID at the household level are obtained from the fourth round of Indian DHS.1 Results: There was a sixteen fold increase in clusters of COVID cases once workers employed in the unorganized sectors distressed across the country started reverse migration in May 2020. The increasing number of COVID cases in the rural dominated districts of the migrant-receiving states overburdened their hitherto stressed public health system. States receiving the maximum share of return migrants during the lockdown was Uttar Pradesh, followed by Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Odisha, and Jharkhand. The two most unsettling vulnerabilities were their inability to follow social distancing norms and lack of water, soap, or detergent for ensuring hand hygiene. Massive unemployment and disadvantage for the urban economy in terms of shortage of workers were other components of the multidimensional vulnerability of labor migrants engaged in unorganized sectors. Conclusions: The spread of awareness among the returnees about precautions, ensuring norms of micro-level social distancing in their households and villages is the need of the hour. Public health’s response to COVID-19 should establish a COVID care center in each of around 700 district hospitals with all necessary infrastructures, including trained human resources, medicines, oxygen ventilators, etc. The governments at the origins and the destinations should ensure mechanisms to protect the migrants against multidimensional vulnerabilities that pose a threat to their entities during socio-economic and health emergencies.

Highway railway level crossings, also widely recognized as HRLCs, present a significant threat to the safety of everyone who uses a roadway, including pedestrians who are attempting to cross an HRLC. More studies with new, proposed solutions are needed due to the global rise in HRLC accidents. Research is required to comprehend driver behaviours, user perceptions, and potential conflicts at level crossings, as well as for the accomplishment of preventative measures. The purpose of this study is to conduct an in-depth investigation of the HRLCs involved in accidents that are located in the northern zone of the Indian railway system. The accident information maintained by the distinct divisional and zonal offices in the northern railways of India is used for this study. The accident data revealed that at least 225 crossings experienced at least one incident between 2006 and 2021. In this study, the logistic regression and multilayer perception (MLP) methods are used to develop an accident prediction model, with the assistance of various factors from the incidents at HRLCs. Both the models were compared with each other, and it was discovered that MLP supplied the best results for accident predictions compared to the logistic regression method. According to the sensitivity analysis, the relative importance of train speed is the most important, and weekday traffic is the least important.

This study of saw dust recycling is come under the Indoor air quality engineering .The Indoor air pollution is very important because the outdoor air pollution is lower than Indoor air pollution. Also, the outdoor air is a source of supply of air to indoor environment in a house/ Industry. In general, the saw mill generates more amount of saw dust per year. The solid waste of saw dust is disposed by open firing method, creates air pollution in local atmosphere and creates lot of health problems to working people inside and surrounding living people nearby saw mill in an urban area. The saw dust mixed with (cow + goat dung) is completely converted into natural fertilizer for agriculture. This study also focus on The Indian railway introduces electrification in rail track (except Rameshwaram) in several routes and ensure air pollution free zone that is zero percentage carbon emission zone.

The Major Research Project is a vital part of the 2-year MBA course at Delhi School
of Management, DTU. The MRP is required to be submitted in the 4th semester of the
course. The topic for MRP is “AN ASSESSMENT OF THE PERFORMANCE OF
INDIAN RAILWAYS ZONES USING DATA ENVELOPMENT ANALYSIS”. The
topic is in relation with Supply Chain and Logistics. My mentor for the same was Dr.
Deepali Malhotra who provided necessary guidance, reviewed updates and suggested
necessary changes required till the completion.
In this Major Research Project, I have tried to analyse the performance of various
Indian Railways zones using Multi Criteria Decision Making tool called Data
Envelopment Analysis. This tool provides the efficiency of various Decision-Making
Units (DMU’s) i.e., Railway Zones by weighing various inputs and outputs, which
generally doesn’t have linear relationship. This technique helps in measuring
efficiency while acknowledging various inputs and outputs which have major impact
on the performance, rather than judging the performance on the basis of certain aspects
such as revenue or Net profit. In the case of latter method of judgement, the input
variables are completely ignored thus not taking complete picture into consideration.
The tool used for analysis is DEAP which was developed by Tim Coelli, and made
analysis really easy. It helped in conducting the analysis in very easy manner and
provided results which were pretty easy to interpret.

Abstract This chapter turns to the making of urban economies, again taking in a broad sweep of history from the early modern period to the present. Framing the evolution of urban economies in relation to the idea of ‘operations of capital’, it traces the early evolution of a regional trading economy from the Indian Ocean to the interlacustrine zone, and the parallel economic integration of the Horn of Africa, before turning to the colonial period and especially the urban impact of colonial railways and limited industrial investment. It then turns to the early postcolonial period, tracing the journey from optimism and economic promise to revolutions, ruptures, and economic collapse. Finally, it examines the celebrated recent economic development achievements of the three case study countries and their relationship to the capital city, setting the scene for the remarkable and divergent urban transformations discussed in the remainder of the book.

Imperial scientists have appeared in a number of our chapters: Cleghorn, protagonist of forest conservation in India; Willcocks, the self-critical dambuilder extraordinary in Egypt and India; Simpson, the plague doctor, and Bruce, who researched trypanosomiasis in southern Africa. The early centuries of empire preceded professionalization, but scientific interests were even then at its heart. Species transfers were, as we have suggested, a long-term preoccupation and closely related to scientific enterprise. The maritime empires that characterized the last half-millennium depended upon nautical technology and navigation science, and this distinguished them from preceding, more geographically restricted, land empires. Naval power and the expansion of shipping permitted a different social geography of empire, linking Europe to the Americas, the tropics, and the southern temperate zones, and partly bypassing the torrid task of conquest in Europe and the Muslim world. Shipping carried the freight of trading empires, literally and metaphorically. Especially from the mid-nineteenth century, scientists were central actors in imperial development. They helped to pioneer new technologies that facilitated discovery, and vastly more effective exploitation, of hidden natural resources, such as gold, oil, and rubber. A growing arms gap underpinned the European power bloc and conquest was so rapid and so widespread in the later decades of the nineteenth century not least because it was relatively easy and inexpensive. Constraints imposed by environment and disease were gradually driven back, by dams, boreholes, and the partial prophylaxis against malaria. Communications, based around steam and iron, telegraphs, railways, and roads were the ‘tentacles of progress’ in the new empire, opening up new routes for exploitation. They bound together increasingly modern, planned cities, zones of hydraulic imperialism, mining, and similar enterprises. Scientists and science in empire have received intense critical attention over the last couple of decades. This is especially so in African history and social sciences which, from their inception as self-conscious areas of academic enquiry, in the dying days of colonialism, tried to write from the vantage point of Africans and to decolonize European minds. From the late 1970s, when it was clear that African nationalist narratives and ambitions had been corrupted, Africanists tended to evince an unease with modernization and development, so closely linked to both the late colonial and nationalist projects.
