Railways Lease 4,694 acres land to generate revenue

Pakistan Railways leased out as many as 4,694 acres of its precious land during the last four years to transform the department into profitable entity by generating more revenue.

Ministry of Railways spokesman told APP that the leased-out land was located in seven divisions including Lahore, Karachi, Peshawar, Quetta, Rawalpindi Multan and Sukkur.

He said the government is taking several steps to retrieve encroached land from the land grabbers, including carrying out a detailed survey to identify the encroached land occupied by the individuals and government departments.

He said Pakistan Railways will accelerate its ongoing anti-encroachment operation against land grabbers across the country with the assistance of Railway Police and district administrations.
