**India minister quits over fare hike
**
KOLKATA: India’s Railways Minister resigned on Sunday in a row over his proposed fare hikes, piling more pressure on a coalition government seen as incapable of pushing through difficult reforms.
Trivedi’s announcement on Wednesday of the** first rail fare hike in eight years** had been greeted with fury by other Trinamool leaders who demanded the immediate withdrawal of the proposals. After standing his ground for five days, Trivedi said he had finally decided to stand down at the request of Trinamool chief Mamata Banerjee.
“She told me it was her party’s decision that I must quit,” he said.
