LAHORE: Pakistan-Business Express has started sending legal notices to Pakistan Railways over non compliance on agreements signed between the two.
“We have sent some seven notices to Pakistan Railways in order to get compensated against the agreed services which the management is not providing us, thereby damaging our quality circle,” said Pak-Business Express Director Operations Mian Shafqat Ali, while talking to media persons.
“To date, we have not received any answer from Railways against the notices we have sent to them which shows their non-serious attitude,” he added.
The notices issued include the explanation and compensation for late departure and arrivals of trains, non-provision of agreed locomotives and coaches, annual maintenance and occupancy ratio issues.
However, Railways rejected the claims, saying that they are not violating the contract and are providing the agreed facilities.
“Railways can never cause any harm to passengers, no matter which train they are travelling on,” said Pakistan Railways Director Public Relations Rauf Tahir. “It is providing the agreed locomotives and is complying with all contractual agreements.”
