We all are watching that the trend of reading books is deteriorating day by day which is an alarming threat to the development of our country and in such circumstances the responsibility of all of us and the government too, is to make sincere efforts to bring books close to the common person..
Since I have come in the field of writing,, I always badly felt a need of books' availability and so in this connection , I humbly request the Ministry of Railways to please come forward to arrange and establish a decent BOOK STALL at each & every Railway Station of the country, whether it is of a metropolitan city or a small village, to make useful,, interesting and informative books/journals available to the citizens based nearby.
In the process, interest of children must be especially kept in mind so that knowledge-based entertaining reading material in the form of illustrated books/colourful magazines, could be brought close to the young generation throughout the country to develop reading habit & create book culture among them.
As far as the layout of the BOOK STALL is concerned, it is very important to have it in a specific design with its two sides open -- one on the plateform & the other on city side so as to save book-lovers from the botheration of buying plateform tickets to enter the premises.
I am sure such stalls will positively create an impact and help to fill the increasing gap between books and it's buyers with an advantage of regulating the decreasing trend of reading habit.
