Niti Aayog will re-examine the proposal for strategic disinvestment of the Container Corporation of India Ltd (CONCOR), Parliament was informed today.
"Niti Aayog will re-examine the proposal for strategic disinvestment of CONCOR," Minister of State (Independent Charge) for Ministry of Planning Rao Inderjit Singh said in a written reply in the Lok Sabha.
The Minister further said the Ministry of Railways will be consulted before taking a final decision on CONCOR.
Concor, which started in 1988 as the only firm with the right to move container trains, now operates in a competitive environment, but still holds over 70 per cent of the containerised rail market.
