The Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) will henceforth directly monitor the progress of the construction of the Dedicated FreÂight Corridor (DFC), virtually taking the job away from the Railways.Prime Minister Manmohan Singh held a meeting in February to take stock of the proÂgress, apparently dissatisfied with the role of the Railways which was primarily to monitor the progress of the job, the execution of which had been handed over to the Dedicated Freight Corridor Corporation of India (DFCCIL).
At the meeting, it was decided that the PMO would monitor the progress of the project and make timely intervention for the completion of the project by March 2017, stressing that it would prove to be the backbone of the country’s economic transport facility.
