Railways fares would not be raised and efforts would be redoubled to increase the income of the organisation through greater business and good governance, said Federal Minister for Railways Khawaja Saad Rafique while talking to journalists on Saturday.

Saad said every possible effort is being made to provide better travelling services to the passengers and increase business trains. He pointed out that now the locomotives are not breaking down on the track and no trains are suspended due to lack of engine or fuel.

The minister said 29 new locomotives will reach Pakistan shortly.

He said special focus is being paid to the maintenance of locomotives despite resource constraints.
