नई दिल्ली: रेल मंत्री अश्विनी वैष्णव ने आज लोकसभा में रेलवे पर चल रही चर्चा का जवाब दिया। विपक्ष के शोर शराबे के बीच रेल मंत्री ने 2014 के बाद से प्रधानमंत्री नरेन्द्र मोदी के नेतृत्व में देश में हुए रेलवे के विकास का विस्तार से उल्लेख किया। उन्होंने कहा कि भारतीय रेल ने वर्ष 2020 के बाद से यात्री किराया नहीं बढ़ाया है और पड़ोसी देशों की तुलना में भारत में रेल किराया सबसे सस्ता है। रेल मंत्री ने सदन को बताया कि बीते दस वर्षों के दौरान देश में रेलवे इन्फ्रास्ट्रक्चर का जबरदस्त विकास हुआ है। देश में 34,000 किलोमीटर रेलवे के नए ट्रैक बने हैं, साथ ही 50 हजार किलोमीटर पुराने ट्रैक हटाकर नए ट्रैक बिछाए गए हैं, जिसकी वजह से सेफ्टी में बड़ा सुधार हुआ है।
