Following the Mantra, “Hungry For Cargo”, Indian Railways has over the years made sustained efforts to improve the ease of doing business as well as improve the service delivery at competitive prices which has resulted in new traffic coming to railways from both conventional and non conventional commodity streams.
Earlier, the national transporter has for the first time ever breached the 1400 MT Freight Loading mark in this financial year. The Originating Freight Loading of Indian Railways for the FY 2021-22 stood at 1418.1 MT (provisional) which is 15% more than the previous best set in FY 2020-21 at 1233.2 MT.
The incremental loading of 185 MT has been led primarily by coal with 111 MT growth, followed by cement at 17.2 MT and balance other goods at 15 MT.
