In order to boost the earnings of Indian Railways, the government is mulling implementing a 'give it up' scheme where it will ask passengers to sacrifice the subsidy given to them on train ticket bookings. The Piyush Goyal-led Ministry is currently working on a plan that would allow passengers to voluntarily give up, either a part or the entire subsidy component given to them on their train tickets. A senior Railway Ministry official aware of the development said, "The railways has submitted a 100-day plan to the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) to increase the earnings."
