CBI busts Rail Neer racket, recovers around Rs. 20 cr during searches
"It was further alleged that the Railway Board had prescribed that IRCTC shall provide Rail Neer at a rate of Rs.10.50/- (approx.) per bottle to the private caterers and the private caterers will be paid Rs.15/- (approx) per bottle for supplying the same to the passengers in premium trains but the private caterers in order to obtain undue gain, were supplying cheap PDW brands other than “Rail Neer” which were available in the market at a rate of Rs.5.70/- to 7.00/-(approx) per bottle, thereby causing gain to themselves and loss to the exchequer," a CBI statement said.
The CBI is continuing further investigation and further seizure.
