SocialPakistan Railways plans to invite private sector to run passengers trains

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan: Under the public-private partnership policy of the government, Pakistan Railways is planning to engage private sector for running the trains, which are not generating enough revenue.

“The move will not affect service of any employee and earn more revenue for national entity,” an official of the Ministry of Railways told APP.

With the involvement of private parties in the commercial management and facilitation, the passenger trains running between Sindh and Punjab capitals had been a success story, he added.

To a question, he said that work on 75 level-crossing in Punjab would be completed soon.

He vowed to retrieve the all occupied land of the Railways across the country.
