Gilly, I don't doubt that it was a cabinet decision, obviously it was done by the government.
But do you know the rational for scrapping the railway ? What was their reason for scraping it ?

According to this news report Burnham scrapped the railway because it was uneconomical. But in 2011 the trained economist and then President Bharrat Jagdeo promised to bring back railways. Who knows, he might now influence incoming President Irfaan Ali to put it on the government's agenda.
