Indian Rlys to help upgrade Iranian rail network
April 11, 2008: Even as the gas pipeline project with Iran hangs in balance, India is likely to help the country in modernisation and expansion of its rail network.
Iran, facing UN sanctions, has sought India's expertise in upgrading its train operations, signalling system and electrical work besides training its personnel as part of its plans to modernise the railway system.
Responding to a request from the Iran government, the Railway Board Chairman with other officials would likely to visit Tehran soon to hold discussions with the Iranian railway officials.
