Actions from Railway Ministry on Safety front
Friends,
Safety was highlighted as a second most important area in our circle poll on Railway needs and in our whitepaper to Railways Ministry.
It is good to see that the Railway Ministry is acting on this front. Railways is installing a state-of-the-art system along the sides of tracks for detection of faults and defective parts in coaches, wagons and locomotives. These systems can check the health of wheels, brake discs and bearings at full running speed of the train and thus increase operational safety and reliability by flagging unsafe conditions well in time.
Please see below for more details.

While booking the ticket, all seats are full, no waitlist also. Then taken Tatkal ticket. But at the time of travelling, we surprised that coach is 50 % seat balance for passengers and no TTC came in that compartment for checking the same and give the seats for required passengers. more

Nothing to do with Safety, but a cost saving exercise. Railways should use train roof tops for fitting Solar Panels and use the power for Lights and Fans. more
