The federal government has decided to introduce a public-private partnership (PPP) model to increase the revenue of Pakistan Railways and improve its operational efficiency.
Under the new strategy, private companies will be invited to participate in managing trains, upgrading infrastructure, and improving passenger services. The move aims to reduce financial losses, modernize railway operations, and ensure better service delivery to commuters.
Officials say the PPP model will help attract investment, enhance transparency, and lessen the burden on the national exchequer. Pakistan Railways has already begun identifying routes and services that can be offered to private sector partners in the first phase.
The government believes that collaboration with the private sector will not only boost revenue but also transform rail transport into a more reliable and competitive option for travelers and businesses.
