In a move aimed at providing relief to passengers, Pakistan Railways has announced a 10% reduction in fares for all express and mail trains. This reduction will apply to both air-conditioned and economy class tickets. According to a notification issued by the railway ministry, the revised fares will come into effect from September 23, 2024. This decision is expected to attract more passengers and boost the railway's revenue. The fare reduction is part of the government's efforts to make rail travel more affordable and accessible for the general public. By decreasing ticket prices, the railways aim to encourage people to opt for train travel over other modes of transportation.
