Originating freight loading reached 130.66 MT during the month of December 22, up from 126.8 MT on December 21. This represents an improvement of 3% from the previous year.

Following the mantra "Hungry For Cargo," IR has consistently worked to make it easier to do business and to supply services at affordable pricing, which has led to an increase in both traditional and nontraditional commodity-related traffic on the railways. Railways was able to achieve this historic feat because of the business development units' customer-centric strategy and hard effort, which was supported by agile policymaking.
