The railway ministry under Banerjee was taking a fresh look at the two projects, situated in Chapra and Madhepura — two Lok Sabha constituencies represented by Lalu — to explore the possibility of shifting them in West Bengal.

Banerjee looks all set to follow in her predecessor Lalu Prasad Yadav’s footsteps by not announcing any hike in passenger fares, she is, however, unlikely to emulate Lalu when it comes to making any kind of cuts in passenger fares.
