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 complaint site is a fake there is no box given in front of place of occurance (which is mandatory )in the complaint registration form therefore no one is able to submit that form.

Sir i m a helicopter pilot in the army presently in delhi for republic day have done numerous cas evac mission in difficult terrain but its disheartening to see an ambulance stuck in a traffic jam. Why can't we utilise metro as a cas evac mean by planning metro station in or very close to hospitals emergency. A cas in the metro can be declared at the station and the train be diverted to hospital enroute.

i have some suggestions which can augment this clean india initiative...... - remove all stray animals from the streets who are fed by eatables and also excrete all around - challan all who throw away wastes from their cars/buses - challan people found spitting gutkas and chewing gums all around - both above can be done by installing hidden cameras at various places - remove unauthorised Kiosks, dhabas and encroachments from all places - authorised kiosks to ensure cleanliness around their areas by placing dustbins, else licences to be cancelled on third notice of violation - all Petrol Pumps should have mandatory Urinals; ATMs & Dustbins - all Traffic Lights should have mandatory Dustbins on both side pavements - all Market places should have an answerable mail ID to report dirtiness of in their respective areas and delayed response should have escalation matrix to penalise the body - beggars should be arrested by the police and sent to rehabilitation centres

Sir i want to share one incident happened with my brother. He is working in IT sector in delhi he came to jhansi to meet us in his holiday. We all relaxed that bro already took reservation but al last day we try to know the running status of train then it shows that train is cancelled. He got tensed because next day he have to join the office urgently. Sir i share this because sir atleast indian railway should provide prior info through sms and also provide reserve seat on other train.
