BS reported that CITU has appealed to Dr Manmohan Singh to transfer two more wagon making PSUs to the railway ministry.

Mr Tapan Sen CITU national secretary said in the letter that these two PSUs namely Burn Standard and Braithwaite were in the red for quite some time and if the railways took them over, it would benefit both the railways and the public sector wagon industry immensely.

Mr Sen also reminded the PM that another sick wagon making unit, Bharat Wagon & Engineering Limited, had been given to the railways and that there should not be any discrimination between other wagon units.
