ISLAMABAD: The Auditor General of Pakistan has identified financial irregularities amounting to Rs11.25 billion in Pakistan Railways (PR) for 2024-25, highlighting persistent weaknesses in financial management, procurement and internal controls that continue to weigh on the performance of the state-owned enterprise. According to the audit report, Pakistan Railways remained dependent on regular financial assistance from the federal government because of recurring operational losses and management shortcomings. The report called for reforms in fare management, service quality and operational efficiency to improve revenue generation and place the organisation on a sustainable financial footing.
