India's Railway Minister Pawan Bansal has announced the first across-the-board train fare increases in 10 years.
He said the 20% rise would come into effect on 21 January to raise $1.2bn (£747m) for maintenance, cleaning and other improvements on the network.
First class and other fares have risen before but general compartments used by millions of the poor have been spared.
