KARACHI, Nov 27 (DNA): Pakistan Railways on Saturday announced to
restore Quetta-Karachi bound Bolan Mail from December 1.
A notification was also issued by PR in this connection. “It has been
decided to restore 3-Up/4-Dn (Bolan Mail) between Karachi-Quetta-Karachi
via Dadu/Jacobabad with effect from 01-12-21,” read the notification.
The operations of Bolan Mail remained suspended for almost two years due
to COVID-19 spread in the country. It is pertinent to mention here that
Pakistan Railways earlier outsourced the commercial management of nine
trains to the private sector under a public-private partnership.
According to the Ministry of Railways official, PR outsourced trains in
order to provide better facilities to the passengers and generate more
revenue for the department.
The trains included Mehran Express, Fareed Express, Faiz Ahmad Faiz
Express, Jinnah Express, Mehran Express, Badar Express, Sir Syed
Express, Ghauri Express, Mianwali Express. DNA
