Indian Railways has reported a significant increase in freight volume, primarily due to the success of its Dedicated Freight Corridors (DFC) project. The Eastern and Western DFCs have allowed for faster, more efficient transport of bulk goods, including coal, steel, and cement, across long distances. The government’s investment in modernizing its rail infrastructure has paid off, as companies are increasingly opting for rail over road to reduce transit times and costs. The success of the DFCs positions Indian Railways as a key player in the global supply chain, especially for goods moving across the Indian subcontinent.
