Railway to charge ‘user fee’ at busy stations, tickets may cost more
印度铁路公司将在繁忙的车站收取“使用费”,火车票或涨价
NEW DELHI: The Indian Railways will soon start levying a “token user fee” from passengers taking trains from busy stations, which will result in marginal increase in the total fare. The user fee, which will be collected for redevelopment of railway stations and modernsation of station infrastructure, will be included in the ticket as it is done in the case of air travel.
新德里:印度铁路公司不久将开始对从繁忙车站乘坐火车的乘客征收“象征性使用费”,这将导致总票价略有上涨。收取的使用费将用于火车站的重建和车站基础设施的现代化,使用费将含在票价中。
“We are going to keep a very small amount for the user charge. We will issue a notification for the user charge for stations including where exsting ones are being redeveloped and also those which are not being redeveloped. When the redevelopment of the stations gets completed the user fee will go to the concessionaires and till then the collected user fee will be utilised by railways for providing better facilities to passengers across stations,” railway board CEO and chairman V K Yadav said.
印度铁路委员会首席执行官兼主席亚达夫称:“我们将收取少量使用费。我们会对收取使用费的车站发出通知,包括正在重建的现有车站及未重建的车站。当重建完成后,使用费将由特许经营者收取,而在此之前,铁路会利用所收取的使用费,为跨站旅客提供更佳的设施。”
He added the charge will be affordable and won’t pinch the passengers. Yadav said it was important as the Indian Railways is focusing on providing world class facilities.
他补充说,使用费金额合理,不会对乘客造成压力。亚达夫说,印度铁路公司正专注于提供世界一流的设施。
Responding to a specific question whether this fee will be collected at all railway stations, Yadav said there are about 7,000 stations on the Indian Railways network and the user fee will be levied at barely 10-15% of the stations where the footfall is projected to increase in the next five years. Going by that calculation, the number of such potential stations would be between 700 and 1,000.
在回答是否在所有火车站收取此费用这个问题时,亚达夫说,印度铁路网络大约有7000个车站,未来5年客流量预计会增加的车站中,只有10% -15%的车站会收取使用费。按照这样的计算,这类潜在车站的数量将在700至1000个之间。
Earlier, railway officials had told reporters at several press meets that the user fee would be charged only at developed stations.
早些时候,铁路官员在几次新闻发布会上告诉记者,使用费只在重建的车站收取。
A ministry spokesperson said, “The value of the benefits will outweigh the minimalistic user fee when paid.” He added this will be done in a phased manner and bringing 10-15% stations under this scheme is the final possibility.
铁道部发言人说:“支付使用费带来的好处很多。”他补充说,我们会分阶段推行,最终可能会把10-15%的车站纳入该计划。
In a written reply, Union railway minister Piyush Goyal had told Lok Sabha on Wednesday, “A Group of Secretaries (GoS) was constituted for redevelopment and modernisation of railway stations to provide better safety, passenger amenities and services. The GoS interalia suggested the levy of a nominal user fee for redevelopment of stations, which is presently under consideration.”
联邦铁道部长皮尤什·戈亚尔周三在书面答复中对人民院表示,“组建了一个秘书小组,负责火车站的重建和现代化,以提高安全性、旅客便利度以及提供更好的服务。”该小组特别建议在重建的车站征收象征性的使用费,目前正在审核中。
