A bill that the Centre is set to introduce in the Winter Session of Parliament has got investors in cryptocurrencies worried.

The Ministry of Railways has announced a rationalisation of passenger fares, effective from December 26, aiming to balance rising operational costs while keeping passenger impact minimal.

The move is expected to generate ₹600 crore in revenue and strengthen safety and efficiency across the railway network.
