Railways Increased Focus on Freight Business Through BDU Initiatives

At the behest of Railway Board each zonal Railway has set up Business Development Units to focus on increasing the share of Freight traffic through Railways.

In this regard, Divisional Railway Managers, Firozpur and Moradabad and their team of officers held separate meetings via video conferencing with Freight customers dealing with commodities like foodgrain, fertilizer, cement, sugar, food processing, yarn & textiles, paper and FMCG supply chain.  Most of these industries are located in the Northern region of the country and are serviced by Firozpur and Moradabad Divisions of Northern Railway.
