Solution :
Stage of revolution is ignored by Pakistan Railway.
Turbulent times leading to severe upheaval of management practices – means revolution or period of revolution.
Many organisations fail during such a crisis – unable to abandon past practices have to wind-up or compromise to lower levels of growth.
The critical task for management in each revolutionary period is to find a new set of organisation.
Interestingly, the new practices sow their own seeds of decay and lead to another revolution. Therefore management sees something a solution in one time period becomes a major problem later.
