President Asif Ali Zardari on Wednesday asked the government to consider various options to bail out railways from its financial crunch.
The president said this during a briefing on issues relating to Pakistan Railways, the restructuring and revitalisation plan and the progress made in the Gul Train. The meeting was informed that Turkish transport experts had been tasked to prepare a feasibility report for involvement of private sector in the Islamabad-Tehran-Istanbul container train service, the Gul Train, to make the train a lucrative cargo service not only between Pakistan and Turkey but also beyond to Europe. Railways Minister Haji Ghulam Ahmed Bilour briefed the meeting about the situation of railways and strategies being pursued to cope with the challenges.
