Railway board chairman Vinay Mittal has written to railway minister Dinesh Trivedi, seeking a fare hike to address earning concerns.
The railways may require Cabinet approval for the proposal once the minister clears it.

We cannot link corruption to every matter. The Railways have not hiked fare for the last many years. The Railway freight is also not being subjected to service tax owing to mamata's politics. In view of overall price rise, it is necessary to hike the rail fare.
