Meanwhile, Railways may soon start imposing an airport-like fee on passengers who use its redeveloped stations which will result in a hike in fares. Railway Board Chairman V K Yadav said that the fee will vary across the newly developed stations depending on their footfalls. He said the ministry will soon notify the amount to be charged. The Railways has floated a request for proposal, seeking bids to redevelop Amritsar, Nagpur, Gwalior and Sabarmati railway stations at an estimated cost of Rs 1,296 crore.

"The user development fee, along the lines of a levy charged by airport operators, will be used to help fund the upgradation of stations. The charges will be nominal," Yadav said.
