Railways officials reported that Bolan Mail services from Karachi to Quetta will remain suspended until February 12 due to ongoing security assessments. The temporary disruption of train services, which began on January 31, was prompted by security concerns in the province.

The resumption demonstrates the government’s commitment to restoring essential public transport services and ensuring the safe movement of people across Balochistan.
