NEW DELHI: New railway minister Pawan Kumar Bansal on Monday gave ample hint of a possible passenger fare hike to improve services in the railways.

“Fare will not be increased for the sake of increasing fare. If fare will be increased, then it will be for providing better services to the passengers,” Bansal said when asked whether passenger fares will be hiked in the future. (PTI)
