This was expressed by Federal Minister for Railways Sheikh Rasheed Ahmed while addressing the workers after inspecting the racks of the new non-stop train Jinnah Express at Railway Workshop Mughalpura. He said that the fare of Jinnah Express has been set at 7 thousand rupees, but no matter how much the railway administration opposes, I will keep the fare of Sir Syed Express at 10 thousand rupees because people want to spend the fare along with good service. Railway workers have not been promoted in the past, I have said that if any officer recruits based on merit, I will not leave and TLA employees will also get a share in the recruitment. He further said that in the past, 2 billion rupees were spent on useless stations, from which the railways do not even get 5 thousand rupees.

Some of the TLA employees will be permanent in this budget and the rest in the next budget. The period that followed would be a golden age for railways.
