NEW DELHI: Emphasizing the need to modernize and transform Railways, Railway Minister Piyush Goyal on Wednesday urged people in the industry to look forward to partnerships to bring in the best of technology in the Railways.

Speaking at the 12th International Railway Equipment Exhibition here on Wednesday, Mr Goyal said that the Government is in a hurry to provide the most modern, most efficient and best modes of transport to serve the poor of India.

To ensure speedy implementation of projects, Government was working on a system by which payment on the 30th day for everything that is supplied to the Railways is guaranteed, the Railways Minister announced. “We want to change the rules of the game now; no more delays in the rail projects should be entertained from now,” he said.
