Rollback In Fares For 2nd Class, Sleeper, AC Chair Car, 3-AC

The hike in rail passenger fares for second class suburban and non-suburban, Sleeper, AC Chair Car and AC 3-tier was today rolled back with the new Railway Minister Mukul Roy dubbing it as a “huge drain” on the pocket of masses.

He, however, kept untouched the increase of 15 paise per km and 30 paise per km respectively in passenger fares in AC 2-tier and AC-I announced by his predecessor Dinesh Trivedi in the Railway Budget only last week.
