Section 161 of Railway act indicates “If any person driving or leading a vehicle is negligent in crossing an unmanned level crossing, he shall be punishable with imprisonment which may extend to one year.”

Section 131 of the Motor Vehicle Act indicates that “Every driver of a motor vehicle at the approach of any unguarded railway level crossing shall cause the vehicle to stop and the driver of the vehicle shall cause the conductor or cleaner or attendant or any other person in the vehicle to walk up to the level crossing and ensure that no train or trolley is approaching from either side and then pilot the motor vehicle across such level crossing, and where no conductor or cleaner or attendant or any other person is available in the vehicle, the driver of the vehicle shall get down from the vehicle himself to ensure that no train or trolley is approaching from either side before the railway track is crossed”

However due to non-following of relevant rules by the road users, many accidents are occurring resulting in loss of precious life  at unmanned level crossings.

Suggest solutions for reducing accidents at unmanned level crossings.

I did a survey on my level in my working circumferences and found that 90% gov. servants are accepting money as bribe some are making loss to Indian Gov. in another way, for example, many trackmen are kept as private servant at residences of higher officer of Solapur Division of Central Railway. IT IS A PLAY WITH SAFETY OF RAILWAY. If a officers have 5 trackmen as private servants, he does 1 to 1.5 lakh loss to Indian Railway. Is it not a type of corruption? only accepting bribe is corruption?

1. एक स्‍वच्‍छ भारत निर्माण के लिये जरूरी है कि सभी नशीली वस्‍तु, टी0वी0 एवं फिल्‍मों में लगाम लगाया जाय। 2. बीड़ी, तम्‍बाखू, पटाखों से लेकर बड़ी से बड़ी चीजों में देवी-देवताओं, महापुरूषों आदि की तस्‍वीरें न लगाई जायें । 3. आर्थिक रूप से भारत को मजबूत बनाने के लिये शासकीय/अशासकीय कार्यालयों में कार्य कर रहे सभी श्रमिकों को चाहे वो जिस रूप में कार्य कर रहे हैं चाहे दैनिक वेतन भोगी, जॉबरेट, कलेक्‍टर रेट, ठेके पर अर्थात किसी भी रूप में कार्य कर रहे हों, उनके लिये नीति बनाई जाकर लागू कराया जाय।

If Indian railway is having difficulty in deciding whether to accept Tata's Group demand of having at least the platforms, it can experiment by giving a few platforms to Tata and see the results in a considerable time period and then decide.

1 No. of free passes to railway employees should be reduced or they should have reservation as normal passenger. In peak season passengers are not getting reservation only employees are traveling on free pass and reservation by VIP quota. Atleast VIP reservation should be curtailed in peak season. 2 Near the rail station huge bunglaws should be used for monetization and rail employees should get multistoried apartment. 3 Embankment on both sides may be used for Herbal/ biodiesel farming.
