Railways Minister Sheikh Rashid has said that he can order trains to resume operations by Tuesday but "waiting for Imran Khan to say yes first".
The minister said that if the decision to resume train operations is not made by Tuesday, it will not be possible for the ministry to make people observe standard operating procedures.
Rashid said that hordes of people were waiting to visit their families on Eid. The minister said that trains will be overcrowded if they do not start functioning by this week.
He announced that ticket prices will also be reduced by 50-60 per cent once trains resume operations, even though the move will land the ministry in a loss.
