Indian Railways plans to invite bids from private operators for running more than 150 passenger trains in the year starting April 1, after a similar plan failed last year, Mint reported.
The railways has identified about 100 destinations where passenger trains will be run by firms that win the contracts. Most destinations are expected to be the same as in the bids invited last year, but the process had to be scrapped in November because of muted interest from private companies, the report said, citing sources aware of the developments.
