Addressing the inauguration ceremony of a second cargo train at Cantt Station in Karachi, Rashid announced that all freight offices as well as his own office are being shifted to Karachi.
“There will be zero tolerance for corruption in the railways. A minister is only temporary, but I will ensure there is zero tolerance for corruption in Pakistan Railways. No tolerance at all,” the minister vowed.
