Pakistan Railways has announced a significant reduction in fares for all classes of passenger trains, starting August 3. This decrease in fares will bring relief to thousands of passengers who rely on trains for their daily commute.
The fare reduction ranges from Rs 50 to Rs 150, depending on the class of travel. AC class tickets will see a decrease of Rs 100 to Rs 150, while economy class fares will be slashed by Rs 50. This price drop will be applicable on all passenger trains across Pakistan.
This development comes on the heels of Pakistan Railways’ launch of a special train service from Karachi to cater to the surge in demand during the summer vacation season. Although the summer vacation special train was delayed by two hours, it still managed to carry over 1,000 passengers on its maiden journey.
With this fare reduction, Pakistan Railways aims to make train travel more accessible and affordable for everyone. Whether you’re a daily commuter or a vacationer, this news is sure to bring a smile to your face.
