If I start up with the paybacks of having a driving license, the list will go endless. The first and foremost thing is that you will feel self-dependent this way. Neither you will feel restricted nor the oddities of public transport will bother you. Moreover, you can save your precious time.
As you have asked about a driving school, here is one I would like to suggest. Success Driving School will be my first advice as this is recognized as one of the most renowned driving school in New Delhi. They have a well organized training program and flexible timings. More importantly, their trainers are truly professional. You will get the best out of your bucks.

IELTS Dehradun topic: Annual spending of the Indian rail industry

The pie charts illustrate the variation in the running costs of the Indian railway in three separate year 2002.

 

IELTS Dehradun The pie charts illustrate the variation in the running costs of the Indian railway in three separate year 2012.

Answer: (Level band 8.5)

The pie charts illustrate the variation in the running costs of the Indian railway in three separate years 1992, 2002 and 2012.

In all three years, the greatest expenditure was on fuel and workers’ salaries including benefits. Fuel spending increased dramatically from 28% in 1992 to 38% in 2002 but the expenses reduced to their nominal value of 29% in 2012. Approximately, employees wages and benefits used the same proportion, 26-30%.

In the year 1992, one fifth of the annual budget went towards taxes and slightly less, 16%, was spent on resources such as equipment and rentals. Surprisingly, the smallest fraction, 10%, was expended on the modernization of railways in this year. In the next two decades, there were small fluctuations of the order of two percent in the expenditure on taxes. Comparitively, the budget for equipment saw a downward trend, ending at only four percent of the total in 2012. In a sharp contrast, the spending on railway development experienced a rising trend, growing from only 6% in 2002 to a whooping 20% by 2012.

Overall, staff salaries and fuel constituted the largest cost to the Indian railway, and while figures fluctuated for most categories, the modernization expenditure went up significantly.
