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.

Indian Railways**** Reduce the cost of operations by removing the experimental /temporary halts*** As per railway records, there are over 1250 experimental halts all over the country. which makes a big loss for railways. As a common traveller, I also noticed that there are many temporary halts for many trains. In some halts, nobody boarding or alighting the train. Train just stop & then move. Railways need to execute this plan asap for recovering the energy loss.

.**MISC.**.."BBBP"...With the launch of the "BETI BACHAO, BETI PADHAO" Scheme on 22nd instant, The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi has under-lined a 'social deformity' which has inflicted our society, for years. He has sought to set the Nation on the right course by trying to bring home the point that, as he has put it, "sons and daughters are two wings of our dreams". We can't ignore the fact that the skewed gender-ratio against girl child is really grave in certain areas of our country.

(1) ट्रेन के शयनयान श्रेणी एवं साधारण श्रेणी की खिड़कियों में छोटी जालियाँ लगाई जाएँ ताकि चोर-उचक्कों से यात्रियों को बचाया जा सके। (2) वातानुकूलित श्रेणी की तरह शयनयान श्रेणी में भी बिना आरक्षण के यात्री सफ़र न करें। चाहे वह प्रतीक्षा सूची या मासिक पास वाले यात्री ही क्यों न हों। (3) प्रतीक्षा सूची या मासिक पास वाले यात्रियों के लिए अलग से डिब्बे लगाए जाने चाहिए।

आखिर रेलवे के हर डिब्बे में एक स्क्रीन क्यों नहीं होती जो wifi पर ट्रेन की जानकारी दिखाती रहे की ट्रेन कौन से स्टेशन पर है अगला स्टेशन कब आएगा ट्रेन कितना लेट हैं, ट्रेन में बैठते ही चाये वाले और खाने वाले को पूछ पूछ के थक जाते हैं की कौन सा स्टेशन है और अगर रात का समय हो तब तो किसको पूछें की ट्रेन कहाँ खरी है कौन सी जगह है कितना लेट है ....हद हो गई आजादी के इतने साल बाद भी हम ट्रेन में ढंग से सो नहीं पाते हैं पता नहीं कब जैसे हमारा स्टेशन आ जाए मर जाओ खिरकी से झांकते और चाये वालों से पूछते ..
