Srinagar- Shobhan Chaudhuri, General Manager, Northern Railway informed that Northern Railway has made a new record in scrap sale.
Northern Railway stands at No.1 in scrap sale amongst all Zonal Railways and Production Units of Indian Railway by disposing off scrap worth Rs. 603.79 Crores in FY 2023-24 which is already more than the annual sale target of Rs. 500Crores. Northern Railway has also the first Zonal Railway to achieve the milestone sale of Rs. 100 Crores, 200 Crores, 300 Crores and 400 Crores in scrap sale in the current Financial Year.
Scrap disposal is an important activity. Besides generating revenue from scrap, it also helps to maintain the working premises neat & tidy. Availability of scrap like Rail pieces, Sleepers, Tie Bars etc. nearby Railway lines is a potential safety hazard.
Northern Railway took the task of disposal of Abandoned Structures like staff quarters, cabins, sheds, water tanks etc in a mission mode. This helped not only in generating revenue but also resulted in valuable space being available for better use and avoiding possible misuse of old structures by miscreants. Their quick disposal has always been a priority area and monitored at the highest level. Scrap PSC sleepers which have accumulated in large quantity over Northern Railway are also being disposed of to release the valuable area for Railway activities besides generating revenue
Northern Railway is poised to cleanse the system from scrap on mission mode to achieve zero scrap status and set an all-time high scrap sale record this financial year.
