With an eye on revenue amid the economic slowdown due to the prevailing pandemic, Western Railway has come up with an idea to build a ‘family mall’ at Dadar station, giving waiting passengers access to branded food kiosks, a gaming zone, etc. The aim is to earn out of the box revenue. Railway officials are confident that the idea will click, given the massive footfall at Dadar station. 

“The Non-Fare Revenue team of Mumbai division has come up with a new idea where the licensee will develop, maintain and operate the concept of a family mall at the busy Dadar station for five years,” a senior official said.
