on RAILWAY BUDGET 2002-2003 |
Prof. J.D.Agarwal, Chairman &
Director, Indian Institute of Finance has welcomed the Railway Budget
presented today. He has particularly appreciated the saving of Rs.
1090 crores in working expenditure due to reduction in expenditure
and rationalisation of passenger fares.
No change in passenger fares as well as that of freight would give
great relief to people and industry.
He also appreciated the Railway Minister's proposal to discharge full
dividend dues budgeted at Rs.2679 crores in coming year.
