Govt to let pvt train operators set their own fares

India will allow private companies to set passenger fares once they start operating train services, a move aimed at luring investors. “Private players have been given the freedom to fix fares in their own way,” chairman of India’s Railway Board, said. But, “air-conditioned buses and planes also operate on those routes, and they have to keep that in mind before setting fares.”
