This Eid, the railways in Pakistan witnessed a significant surge in train bookings, with a remarkable increase of 100% in reservations compared to previous years. The spike in bookings was primarily driven by people eager to reunite with their loved ones across the country during the festive season.
As the Eid festivities approached, individuals planning to travel domestically opted for train services, resulting in a surge in demand for tickets. To accommodate the increased travel demand during Eid, the Railway Department initiated the operation of four special trains to facilitate passengers.
A spokesperson for the railways highlighted the department’s efforts in ensuring a seamless travel experience for passengers. Additionally, the spokesperson mentioned that the railways had successfully completed the payment of salaries for the current month, addressing previous delays that had affected employees.
The improved payment system and the introduction of special Eid trains signify the railways’ commitment to enhancing passenger convenience and overall service quality. Despite challenges faced in the past, railway employees’ dedication and hard work have contributed significantly to the railway’s revenue, reaching a substantial figure of 60 billion.
Overall, the surge in Eid train bookings coupled with improved service standards and timely salary payments reflect positive developments within Pakistan’s railway sector, promising a better travel experience for passengers in the future.
