From ISLAMABAD: The Chief Executive Officer of Pakistan Railways, Aamir Ali Baloch, has declared that the company intends to include air-conditioned trains and reduce tickets across the whole network. This would result in a travel experience that is both more comfortable and more economical for passengers. The details of the government’s attempts to transform Pakistan Railways into a transportation system of world-class caliber were disclosed by Baloch in an interview with PTV News. The primary aim of these efforts is to improve the affordability and convenience of travel for passengers.
As of the 23rd of September, Pakistan Railways has implemented a 10% reduction in rates for all passenger trains, which includes both air-conditioned and economy class services. The reduction in fares that applies to express and postal trains makes rail travel more accessible to a greater number of commuters from a variety of backgrounds.

It is the intention to improve the effectiveness, dependability, and comfort of the passengers. In addition, he stressed that these enhancements are in line with the objective of Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif, which is to integrate cutting-edge technology into Pakistan Railways in order to provide passengers with transportation that is uninterrupted.
As a result of these modifications, Pakistan Railways intends to become the transportation option of choice for passengers while also making a contribution to the general development of the transportation infrastructure in the country.
